Speak only what helps

May 19, 2015 | 2 comments

Watch the way you talk.
Let nothing foul or dirty come out of your mouth.
Say only what helps, each word a gift.

~ Apostle Paul, Ephesians 4:29, MSG

  1. I love The Message version of Ephesians 4:29. It is clear as a bell. The words we use do matter. They are either edifying or tearing down. Supporting or undercutting. Healing or hurting. Purifying or contaminating. “Say only what helps, each word a gift”. Amen!

  2. I’ve been working several years on the “Think before you speak” idea. It’s been a challenge. )-:

    “Say only what helps…” Good rule! Thanks!
