Matthew 15:10-11

New International Version (NIV)

 ¹⁰ Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. ¹¹ What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”

Thought:
So be careful what and who you listen to.  It may very well turn around and come out of your own mouth eventually!!  That hurts to think about how it will affect those around you when you speak doesn't it? So when you are out and about, pay attention to what you are saying and realize all those ears that are around you to hear those words.  Also pay attention to the words that you are letting into your ears too.  The words from friends, music, television..., they too will corrupt you and fill your heart, then that is all you will know to speak.

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, guard my ears from the worlds words, guide my tongue to protect what I say to others as they listen to me.  Amen.
