Speech and Spiritualism

James 1:26 (New American Standard Bible)
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless.

The way we speak, react, behave and live has a greater impact on the faith we profess. Our speech and behavior reveal our attitude, motives and perceptions we hold. As children of God we should know how we communicate to others. If our speech does not have any Christ-likeness in it, then our faith which we profess seldom holds a good impact on the hearers.

What we speak, the way we say it and the respect we give to the hearer holds a greater value on us and our faith...

May every conversation we get into reveal that we are indeed God's children and may our faith never be deemed meaningless because of our immaturity to communicate appropriately.
