Scripture: James 3:1-12

“It Only Takes A Spark”
Our Words Matter
James 3:1-12

1 Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. James 3:1 NIV

2 We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.
3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4 Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. 5 Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. James 3:2-5a NIV

Psalm 19:14 – “”Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.”
