Words

Why do I speak when my mouth is full of angry words? For my mantle is in silence, and my strength is in the blessed realm of quietness.

Guard my lips oh Lord, from the ravages of destructive and hurtful words, but open my ears to hear and then speak your words of truth, joy and peace.

For the sound of lovely words is as salve to the soul rather than wounding a spirit with harsh utterances, for in kindness the light of the morning becomes the brilliance of day.
