Glue For My Mouth


Me, this is about me! I do better these days, but there was a time when I needed ALL the glue for my mouth.
There were so many times I would say whatever I wanted, but I felt awful for it afterward. But I did it repeatedly till I found myself in a place where I was tired of apologizing about the same thing again and again.
So it was time to shut my mouth and zip it up! I tell my kids you get what you get doing what you're doing. If we want different results, we must change what we do. So, that was my cue. I had to learn to close my mouth when I didn't have something encouraging or helpful to say. I learned I did not have to have the last word. I did not need to say everything that come to mindIt may be easy for some, but not for me.
God has taught me to importance of my words. So these days I try to be very careful how I use them.
Proverbs 18:21
"The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences
