Consider This...

There are six things the Lord  hates—no, seven things he detests: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family. (Proverbs 6:16-19 NLT)

It's interesting to note that at least three of the seven things God says He "hates" specifically deal with the words we speak, write, text or type. Too often what happens is our mouths go into motion before our minds get into gear. In other words, we speak before we think about the content/effect of what we're saying! Always remember...there are consequences to your words both now and in eternity. Make them count for good, not evil!
