Communication

Yesterday morning as I was doing the homework for PUP class I felt that the passages were speaking directly to me. It was about communication, and it was asking us to refer to various scriptures that touch on our tongue, speech, words etc.

Guess what today's devotion passage is taken from?

Matthew 12:33-37

33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. 34 You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. 35 A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. 36 But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. 37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Even yesterday I acknowledged to my brother that this is an area that I know I offend others often. I guess God is really doing a deeper work in me and wants to perfect me in this area.

Dear God,

I thank You for constantly teaching and guiding me, and above all for accepting me for who I am despite all my flaws. Thank You for showing me where you want me to work on. Give me the strength to do so so that I may bring glory to You.

In Jesus' Name
Amen
