Word Count Warning

Proverbs 10:19, “In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.”

When words are many, transgression is not lacking. Verbal sprawl breeds sin, exaggeration, gossip, self-display. The wise bridle tongue-muscle, ensuring each sentence earns its oxygen. Jesus said we will account for every idle word. Be thriftful with your words now is freedom later.

Act today: In your next conversation, aim to listen twice as long as you speak. Notice how restraint clarifies value.
