Consider for a moment the number of fights that would not have occurred in the world had harsh and hasty words not been said. Think how many relationships might still be intact if words had not been let loose. Once we say something, it cannot be unsaid. So when you are stressed, tired, or otherwise compromised in your patience and tolerance, pray extra hard that God guard your lips and keep your words aligned with his spirit.
