bittersweet

I will never regret, I have never ever regretted biting my tongue long enough to think about what I'm going to say before I say it.

When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise. -Prov. 10:19

I've been praying lately that God would help me to be humble. Not so much to chop off my feet so that I would see my true height, but that in all things He would teach me humility.

Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Prov. 12:18

I think I'm seeing my first challenge. To bite my tongue. To think about what I am going to say before I say it. This is incredibly hard for me. You see I have so much that needs to be said and y'all just need to hear it!!

But all that being said, I'm going to go to bed now and read. It's a quiet thing. I'll check in and let you know how my new week goes...working to think before I speak.

He who guards his mouth and his tongue keeps himself from calamity. Prov 21:23
