Thing with the tongue…

Read: Proverbs 15:1-7

There are more stuff in Proverbs 15 than we can handle here. So let’s just focus on the theme verse: “The tongue of the wise adorns knowledge, but the mouth of the fool gushes folly” (v.2). I can’t help it but I automatically imagine a cartoonish image of two tongues: one is lovely, the other ugly.  The lesson is clear: speaking wisdom is lovely, speaking folly is ugly.

If you cannot stop your tongue from sticking, stop it from stinking.
