Lord, open my lips so that I can speak. Then my mouth will praise you. ~ Psalm 51:15 (NIRV)
Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. ~ 1 Peter 4:11a (NLT)
Lord, I cannot speak right apart from you. Sometimes I speak without thinking and I say things that are hurtful or troubling. Forgive me. Please fill me with good words -- words from you -- words that glorify Jesus. Might every single thing I say today honor you. Amen.
