We ought to be careful with what we say. God tells us in His Word that the tongue has incredible power. We can use our tongue to bring blessings and life or curses and death. The saying "sticks and stones can break my bones but words will never hurt me" is simply not true. Our tongues can be the most difficult thing to control and leave us with great regret if we use our words. to hurt. There is hope! The Bible tells us that with the help of the Holy Spirit we can have power and control over our tongue. The afore prayer needs to be said over and over again.
