“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.” (v.21)
The tongue can make a powerful impact. It can ruin a reputation, destroy a friendship, even cause lasting heartache. On the other hand, the tongue can give comfort, hope, truth, and can be used to praise and glorify God. May our speech always be an encouragement to others and bring honor and glory to God.
The Truth: “The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.” (Proverbs 15:4)
