Good morning all,
The word of the day is “yawp.” I've spoken recently at my
church concerning the way that Christians ought to conduct themselves. The
thing is that this is not a new concern at all. From the inception of the
church we saw the need for apostles, pastors, and other leaders to step in and
help people understand the way they should live. And, just like each of our
moms always told us that we need to watch what we say, so does the Bible
instruct us.
Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse
joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.
~Eph 5:4
My question is: how do you conduct your speech? What are the
words that come out of your mouth? Make no mistake about it. There is always
someone looking at you… and listening. You better believe that your words
matter to others. And the funny part about it is that it is the non-Christians
who remember our words. My prayer this morning is that each of us put aside all
yawping, or foolish talk. Your words can be used by God to bring others to a
relationship with Jesus Christ. You must only answer that sacred responsibility
and call.
Praying for you,
Mall
