Grace for your spirit 3-13-17

Grace for your spirit
From the same mouth come both blessing and cursing.  My brethren, these things ought not to be this way.  Does a fountain send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?  James 3:10-11

Can you imagine going to a water fountain with a warning that the water might be fresh or bitter ?  Fresh or bitter maybe, but it should be one or the other.  We would certainly question the source.  The same is true with our words.  We can claim our heart belongs to God, but our mouth can betray us.  We can turn our speech for good, when we turn our heart and spirit to good.  That change comes from the Lord.  May our speech give Him all the glory.
