This week in bible study we read James 3 and talked about taming the tongue.
My mom used to get us to memorize this passage when my brothers and I spoke harshly to each other. I'm sure Stephen had to memorize the whole thing. I wish I'd memorized more. It's very practical passage.
I was trying to figure out what precisely GOD wanted me to change. I had narrowed it down to being a heart issue. I was listening to sermons on idolatry and I got a letter from my mom and it kind of converged on this:
What am I doing to be more like Jesus?
Specifically, I need to trust in GOD's sovereignty and not in my ability to manipulate.
I need to realize I'm not as smart as I think.
I need to no longer judge people.
I need to be less hard on myself.
