Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
What a fantastic thing it would be if we, the church could control our tongues. "Out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks." I think about that very often. I've frequently considered that the things our tongues speak about reveal what our hearts delight in. It grieves me sometimes to see the things my heart must treasure. (based on the words that fill my mouth) So I find this prayer beautiful, "Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips."
Another significant measure of a person's character is how they respond to rebuke. Some people take it upon themselves to "right every wrong" they perceive, but others rebuke from a place of love and genuine care for the wayward individual. A person of character receives the rebuke well, "Let a righteous man strike me- it is a kindness; let him rebuke me- it is oil for my head." When someone who walks well with the Lord rebukes us, it should shape us well into the image of Christ and should be like an anointing of oil on our heads. Consider David's response in 2 Samuel 12 when Nathan rebuked the king for his sin with Bathsheba and his murder of Uriah. David wrote the 51st Psalm in response. He did not refuse the rebuke. If we reject a righteous rebuke, it shows a weakness of character.
