Some poignant statements In
the Book of James concerning
the tongue should cause every
man of us to guard carefully
his mouth. Listen to these:
"Set on fire of hell"; full
of deadly poison. Such state
ments should stab us wide a
wake to the danger of idle,
careless impious words.
Human happiness and misery
are largely an affair Of the
tongue. When we can make a
hell or a heaven by our words,
1t is amazing that we are NOT
more careful of them. Mean
words have wrecked many a
home, divided many a church,
and sent unnumbered millions
to despair and to ruin.
Kind words are the outflow
of a pure heart. Harsh crit
ical words spring from inner
bitterness and moral laxity
Gentle words, like flowers,
leave a fragrance In the hands
of those who bestow them. Ugly
cruel words, like fire, leave
a scar which time cannot erase
If your foot slips you may
recover your balance. but Il
your tongue slips you cannot
recall the words. Should you
fail to recover your balance
a broken bone may result, but
your nrecalled words may
break hearts, blight souls. anc
curse to all eternity.

be put away from you" Ephe-
SLAMS 4:3l).
