Proverbs 10:32
The lips of the righteous bring forth what is acceptable, But the mouth of the wicked what is perverted.
How do we know what is acceptable?
Things that you and I find appropriate come from where we have been and what we know. When I first became a Christian, I didn't know anything acceptable. I wanted so badly to get it right but I didn't know how. Thank goodness we are all a work in progress.
As we finish up Proverbs 10 it seems to mean that one thing is very clear, our words speak for our knowledge and wisdom. If you question the things in your life, there is once source for the answer, The Word. If you find yourself wondering if your frame of mind, your choices, your words are lined up with God, Read the Word. I can't say it enough.
Romans 12:1-3 Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present
your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith.
Please Pray for Janice J this week.
