Nathaniel Buzolic Instagram – Words are powerful & Anything that holds such power also needs to come with great caution. Just as Guns should cover safety practices & restrictions just as cars should comply with road rules & limits Communication is faster & the means in which we can Communicate has increased beyond belief. But have these two factors made us forget the power & danger that all words can carry? Just because words can be typed out doesn’t mean they automatically carry less weight. People will say all kinds of hate-filled things here on social media, which they wouldn’t dare say directly to someone’s face. But that is the sad nature of this present age Humanity is flippant with words and We are all guilty of saying things long before we think & even longer before we may truly understand or care to understand at all. But There is a cost to such reckless word behavior. Look at what Jesus states about man’s pride to freely speak What ever “truth” he or she feels in any given moment He says; But I tell you that on the Day of Judgment, men will give account for every careless word they speak. For by your words you will be justified, & by your words you will be condemned. Matt‬ ‭12:36-37‬ Solomon puts it like this; Do not be quick with your mouth nor hasty in your heart to utter a word in God’s presence. For God is in heaven, and you are on the earth— therefore, let your words be few. As a dream comes with excessive burdens so a fool’s voice with too many words. When you swear a vow to God, don’t delay in fulfilling it. For He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow! It is better for you not to vow than to vow and not pay. Don’t let your mouth lead your flesh to sin, and don’t say before the messenger, “It was a mistake!” Why should God be angry at your voice and destroy the work of your hands? Many dreams and many words are meaningless. Therefore, fear God!” ‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭5:1-6‬ ‭TLV‬ His final line really gives you the solution. Fear God. Do not be like man & say what you wish but first seek real knowledge & understanding before you open your lips If what drives your words most is pure EMOTION you will always be the most RECKLESS driver on any road of communication
