The Wisdom of Silence

Proverbs 10:19 “In the multitude of words sin is not lacking, But he who restrains his lips is wise.”

Oh Christians our words reflect our Lord, our Savior, our Sacrifice, our King.  Please be jealous of His honor, even if you care not for your own.

    Great advice – if I can follow it myself. LOL Maybe I should keep my mouth shut more when I’m on twitter. ;) Ha!

    I remind myself of this verse often. Thanks for reminding all of us to be more vigilent in guarding our tongues.

    Yes, even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent.

    How funny! We’ve had this verse on the white board in the kitchen all week. It’s a great reminder.
