But the things that proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and those defile the man. Matthew 18:18
We try to encourage everyone to be ready to give an account of the hope that they have in Christ. It is great when we can return a blessing when we are criticized. If we are going to reach these goals it is not just about our mouth. We need to sanctify Christ as Lord in our hearts and minds. When our spirit belongs to Him, our responses will reflect His glory living in us. Remember the GIGO cycle. Grace in, grace out, or garbage in, garbage out. Let's choose grace, and grace will be our speech.
