Tongue Control

by | Jan 23, 2009 | 0 comments

Those who control their tongues will have a long life.
Proverbs 13:3 NLT
Work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty.
Proverbs 14:23 NLT
A gentle answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stir up anger.
Proverbs 15:1 NLT
Those who control their anger have great understanding;
those with a hasty temper will make mistakes.
Proverbs 14:29 NLT

The way one responds to others is important. Getting along with others is a big part of having success in school, relationships, and their work experience. Learning to get along with ones siblings is a good place to learn to get along with others.

 

  • Pray your grandchildren will learn to speak gently and control their tongues at an early age for success in their relationships with their families, in school, and employment.
  • Pray they will work hard and carry through with what they say.
  • Pray they will learn to speak gently with understanding and not stir up anger with harsh words, which they will regret, especially in confrontations.
