“A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good... for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.”
Luke 6:45
Reflection
Jesus says our words are diagnostic — they reveal what is actually inside us, not just what we intend to project. Sustained, loving speech does not come from willpower; it comes from a heart that has been filled with good things. The way to guard your mouth is not to bite your tongue more often, but to fill your heart more deeply — with Scripture, with prayer, with gratitude, with time in God's presence.

Today's Prayer
