Matthew 12:36 ESV "I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,"It's probably one of those verses we don't want to think about! Today's verse speaks of our careless words! We probably don't even think about them but one day we will.Careless words - you know the ones spoken in anger, spoken in jest, spoken without really thinking about the damage we can do with our words. It was during a discussion when the each party began to get a little more angry - then it happened, the words turned ugly. Hurtful things were said, some lies were said, and before you knew it, fists were flying. It has happened time and again when our words have cause pain to someone else. Maybe we were intending to hurt them by our words but once they were spoken, we can't get them back. Let's be careful with our words, think twice, speak once and only in love! peace, tom
