(Col 3:8 KJV) But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Even most kids know at a very young age what are good words and what are bad words. They know that if they say something bad or act miserable and angry towards someone, they get in trouble. As adults we know for sure, but because we think there is no accountability, no one will say anything to us because we are allowed… after all we are adults; it’s our privilege.
The thing we may forget at times is that we are all accountable for our mouths and attitudes towards one another. The things that we have gotten so desensitized to are not and never will be desensitized to our Father!! These things are the very things He tells us to PUT OFF…Don’t do.
Imagine the HOLY ONE; perfect in all His ways, so beautiful and AWESOME. Our Heavenly Father wants to spend time with us, yet we wake up in the morning and begin our day by shouting and being miserable to our kids or our spouse, then we head to work and carry our misery with us in there too. And all because we don’t feel so good, or we woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
We are accountable whether we want to be or not. God is with us.
Let’s examine ourselves today and make sure that the things we do and say and the way we act and carry ourselves are pleasing to HIM.
