Our Words and Sin

In our verse for today (Proverbs 10:19), God makes a clear connection between our words and our sin. I find that a very intriguing relationship and so I find myself asking the question what is it about my words that can lead me into sin? The thought that comes to my mind is that we usually talk a lot about stuff that fascinates us and many times what fascinates us is ourselves.

For today, I wonder what will happen if I talk less about myself and listen more to others? How will that impact my life? What effect will it have on those around me?

I'm going to give it a try:)

  1. I find that when I avoid the subject of "me" that I also am avoiding sin; or at least temptation.
