Prodigal:\u00a0 I wonder what is wrong with him?<\/p>\n

Me:\u00a0 Sometimes we really don’t know and we need to love and pray.<\/p>\n

Prodigal:\u00a0 I agree.<\/p>\n

This is from the book\u00a0 God Came Near by Max Lucado<\/p>\n

These practical steps will purge careless words from your talk.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Never tell jokes that slander.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Never criticize in public unless you:\u00a0 have already expressed your disappointment with the other person in private, have already taken someone with you to discuss the grievance with the person, and are absolutely convinced that public reprimand is necessary and will be helpful.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Never say anything about anyone in their absence that you wouldn’t say in their presence.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Watching your tongue is very important since you are following God.\u00a0 Satan would like to discredit you at all cost.\u00a0 You may think you have control over “those bigger temptations” but Satan can easily trip you up with the smaller ones, that would include your mouth.\u00a0 Watch, pray and love others.\u00a0 That is your direction for the day.<\/p>\n

    After this manner therefore pray ye:\u00a0 Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.\u00a0 Matthew 6:9<\/p>\n

    Jennifer Van Allen<\/p>\n
