Taming the Tongue & Wisdom Flashcards
Why is it important to Tame the Tongue?
Words have power and you can not take something back once you have said it.
Do our words affect others and how?
When we say something, it can either be constructive or destructive. We have the power to either hurt or help someone with just our words.
What are we told to do before we speak and why?
We are taught to think before we speak. This is also aligns with treat your neighbour how you want to be treated and if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything. Our words have power, therefore we shouldn’t abuse that power and we should be careful and considerate of others feelings before we say something that may hurt them
What is Wisdom?
It is knowing what’s right and doing it.
How can we gain Wisdom?
From praying, reading the bible and connecting with God and seeking answers from him.
How can we learn about Wisdom?
God gave us two ears and one mouth because we are supposed to listen more that talk. When we do that, we are able to apply wisdom by being loving Christians.
