“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord.” Psalm 19:14. People in our workplaces, churches, neighborhoods, and families can be the target of sharp tongues and feel the pain of discussions that never should have happened.  How can we escape our inclination to use words to hurt others?  By recognizing that the ultimate Hearer of our words is God. When we seek to please God with our conversations with and about others, we honor Him.  With His help, we can glorify Him through what we say. It is better to bite your tongue than to make a biting remark.
