I'm sitting here reading James 3, and it got me started on a thought process and of course I had to write about it while it was still fresh in my mind. Look at the objects above when you look at it, it's just a match stick, an airplane yolk, and a steering wheel. But if you take each object and look at what it can do it's truly amazing. For instance, a steering wheel as small as it is controls the movement of a whole car. If you turn it right, it will turn right. If you turn it left it will turn left, but if you choose to keep it straight it will also do that. The same goes for an airplane yolk. You can control your destination with that one small piece of equipment. Lastly I looked at the single match. It's small, almost inanimate object in most peoples eyes, but when you think about it if you spark that small inanimate object it has the power to burn down a whole forest. The same goes for your tongue. You tongue can make grand speeches (James 3:5), but are those speeches regrettable? Do they speak life to yourself and to others or is a speech of death into every situation? Your tongue is capable of sparking fire in peoples' lives...make sure it is a fire of prosperity and not of death.
"The best speech you have made that you will come to regret is a speech made in anger"
