Yeah, where words are many, sin ain't absent, as Solomon said. You think that would encourage me not to have diarhea of the mouth!  Enjoy your weekend.  :-)

     Teral,  great blog, I'm reading "30 days to Taming your Tongue" by Deborah Smith Pegues.
I'm learning to say few words through my journey.

Sister Teral.
The words of an old saint of God has stuck with me for many years." Less said, Less mended". Sounds like a man that knew, what it was to have straighten something out after the fact. Brother Sanders

I am a chatty person. I always hated hearing these verses about the tongue and fools and well you know. I am however learning to appreciate instruction in this area. Sometimes, I am truly able to shut my mouth.

I love that less said less mended...thanks Vickie!

I like the familiar faces. :) It is cozy.

You're on to something there! I've edited countless articles and I can tell you that editing them down ALWAYS improves them.

Great scripture, Lara, and I love "less said - less mended." I'm writing that down!

Preachers often hear from parishioners..I would rather see a sermon than hear one. I know what they mean but thank God folks still do assemble the breathren. Romans tells us that the Holy Spirit intecedes so powerfully for us that His world are inexpressble. How many of our prayers have been that intense. I send you some intense ones on your behalf.  Pastor Charles

 I just love Phillips, Craig and Dean.
I also like what you shared. I am a person of little word,
but sometimes I miss the word I should have said....lol

This is great advice.  I try to keep my words to a few, of course being shy, that isn't a problem, but there are times that we need to just be still and listen.  Great blog.
