The Basic Training Challenge – Mail CallНамуна
Day 11 — Loose Lips
Pray:
Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive Your Word. Amen.
Read: James 3:1-18
Reflect
Insubordination could get me discharged from the service. Gossip would not necessarily get me discharged, but I might not win any friends or allies. I want others to trust me, so I want to guard how I speak. Why is it important for us to control what we say? If we are wise, how will we act? Does this describe my life?
Respond
Lord, starting today, help me monitor all that I say. Show me how to build others up, rather than tear them down. May all that I say honor You. Amen.
