have you ever said something and immediately want to take it back? or, maybe just a remark that you have never given a thought to, but it meant a lot to whom you were referring to.
The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit. - Proverbs 18:21 -
so when u realise the hurt you have caused.. the damage is done. one such rule states that: all that was released from your mouth cannot be taken back.
heard of the saying,
sticks and stones will break my bones, but words can never harm me?
that is so not true.
the bible says our words can be used to build each other up, or tear each other down. often than not, we do the latter, knowingly or unknowingly.
"Whoever restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding. Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent." - Proverbs 17:27-28 -
be wise with words.
