Watch What You Say

We often talk too much. We say a lot of words without really saying anything significant. Some of us seem to just talk to hear ourselves talk. Some people talk so much that it is hard for others to get a word word in the conversation. However, idle conversation is also bad.

"... That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgement. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." Matthew 12:36-37

While this might seem like an insignificant "little thing", there is no such thing as a little sin, a sin is a sin against God. Whatever we do, say or think that does not give God glory is unrighteous and the Bible says, "All unrighteousness is sin; and there is a sin not unto death." 1 John 5:17

Therefore be very careful regarding what you say, because it may be held against you on judgement day.
