Do My Words Glorify God?
I want to say I've spent the better part of my 52 years glorifying God and spreading the Gospel of Christ. Unfortunately, I've probably spent more time sticking my foot in my mouth than I care to say. I coined the term "Candy Feet" some time back. It describes people like myself who stick their feet in their mouths continually.
Based on the news and social media, I would wager that I'm not the only one who suffers from this. While it may not be intentional in some situations, it is often very deliberate, and it shows.
Angry Andy: Do you cause drama everywhere you go? We’d be wise to consider Psalm 37:8 - “Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.”
Smarty Sam: Do you struggle with pride or thinking you’re the smartest while everyone else struggles to keep up? James 4:6 - “But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Keyboard Ken: Do you give your opinion on… everything? James 1:19 - “Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger;”
Political Pete: Are you someone who argues about politics at every chance? We should be humble in the way we speak with one another. After all, God is in control no matter the candidate or party in power. Psalm 115:3 - “Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases."
Uncommen Questions:
Do you control your speech or do you let your speech control you?
Do you feel you have to be right all the time? Why?
Uncommen Challenge:
I challenge us to examine our speech and ask ourselves whether it glorifies God or us.
