Last week in Pathways we talked about the condition of our hearts and how Jesus cares far more about our hearts than the appearance we project to the world. This week we’re learning from James about how our words often reflect what’s on our hearts. We’ve all said things we regret, things that have hurt people we love and damaged or ruined relationships. We’ve all been hurt by the words of others and know the pain a carefully placed comment can cause. James compares the tongue to the rudder of a ship, the bit in a horse’s mouth, and a fire blazing out of control… sound familiar? So much power in such a tiny package, so how do we even begin to tame the untamable?
