“Water & words. Easy to pour, impossible to recover!” I am reading on the board, that is standing in front of one of our hairdressers.

And this morning in my reading of the Bible from cover to cover, I came to Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, where it says in chapter four, “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” (Ephesians 4:29, NIV) In another translation it says, “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” (Ephesians 4:29, NLT)

I am asking myself now, “What kind of words are pouring out of my mouth?” Do you want to ask yourself the same question?
