You hear it on the street, on television, and in conversations everywhere.
Many people speak harshly to one another.
When they do, they fail to recognize the presence of God that dwells in every person. Pleasant and courteous words reflect an inner sense of peace, while vulgar and crude words express the storm that lies within. When you use God's name irreverently or use vulgar language, you also do great harm to yourself. You forget that God is your loving Father who wants nothing but the best for you and others. Most people do not intend to hurt others purposely.
