When my emotions are running high or exhaustion has taken its toll, my words can sometimes get me in trouble.

When I let down the guard of wisdom and self-control, the words I speak are not wise or controlled.

When I feel resentful, I speak as a person who has not communicated my desires and capacity.

When I feel angry, who knows what will spill out.

When I feel exhausted? Well, the people around me don't get the kindest version of me.

Words. They take self-control, dependence on God and practice to get them right. Do your words sometimes get you in trouble? I pray this 4-minute episode will help you time and time again when you're struggling with the words you speak.
