{Declaring} With my mouth, I will praise. With my tongue, I will bless. I will safeguard the wellspring of my heart so that no bitterness can take root. May I overflow with gratitude, and may my faith be steadfast too. May I reflect Your heart – in things both large and small. May I bring glory and honor unto You.
{Praying} Please put a guard upon my mouth that I may not stumble or sin. Help me capture each thought and submit it to Christ, and may no temptation draw me in. May my life be a blessing to all those around me, and may my heart be ever true. But above all else may I be pleasing in Your sight and be a blessing unto You.
James 3:9 (TPT) We use our tongue to praise God our Father and then turn around and curse a person who was made in his very image!
