Hasty Words!
Dear Lord, I pray for those who think before they speak. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Ever regret having said something?
Most people can think of a time when they wish they could take back their words.
Once uttered, words convey a message. Sincere apologies may not be able to erase the harm done by a hasty comment.
Proverbs 29:20 (ESV) is about a man whose quick comments get him into trouble.
“Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.”
This proverb is reminiscent of the adage, “Think before you speak.”
Guard your words. Don’t become less than a fool.
