Fit For Speaking

“…and there must be no filthiness and silly talk or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.” (Ephesians 5:4)

Some things just don’t fit together.  Shorts and cowboy boots are not a good life choice.  Black socks and sandals are apparently a no-no (just ask my kids!).

You know what also doesn’t fit together?  Crude jokes and a Christian mouth.  Filthy language and a life of faith just don’t work well together.  They are like putting toothpaste in your coffee or scrambled eggs with your chocolate.  It ain’t right.

We represent the King at all times – guard your mouth.  And if you don’t know what to say, the verse also answers that question: “but rather giving of thanks”.  A grateful voice is always a good choice.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
