BUT...only speak what is helpful (Ephesians 4:29)


Do not let any unwholesome talk
come out of your mouths,
BUT…
Only what is helpful to building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
Ephesians 4:29  NIV

This verse was part of this Sunday’s message called Fighting Mad by Pastor Beau Adams at Community Bible Church. God can do amazing things in your life when you turn your mouths over to Him. To me it has been like learning a new language. Stop and think about what you want to say and then allow the Holy Spirit to translate it to words that may benefit those who listen. It is hard work BUT all it takes is surrender on your part and one day it is as if you are bilingual and you find yourself being a positive speaker. I speak from experience!
