James 3:2 NASB "For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to rein in the whole body as well."Paging through a men's health magazine, I came to realize that I will never have the perfect body, or even remotely look like some of the guys in the articles! Today's verse states more about what we say and how that can affect our whole body as well! Keeping our body in shape shouldn't be to be like the other guys but to do what is best for us and the routine that works for us. The same can be said of our words, and how they can cause us to stumble. Words can lift us and others up or it can tear down. Realizing the difference in the tone, of how we say things, is important! Let's not just "tone up" our bodies but "tone up" our speech so we can be more like Jesus! In His Book there are no physical pictures of Jesus but we can see how He lived, what He has done and try to make our life example His! What do you say, wanna spiritual work out? peace, tom
