TODAY... James 3:1-12 Speak Life

We all speak a lot of words...

Men on Average 7,000 a day
Women 20,000 a day
860M in a lifetime

What a better talk on Mother's Day right...

As we mapped out James this passage just fell on Mother's Day...

We need to speak LIFE into our MOM's

Today we are going to talk about HOW TO TAME THE TONGUE by speaking Life!!!

You ever met someone that just says TOO MUCH.

I was that kid that ran my mouth all the time - go figure

My brother used to say to me all the time... if you would just shut your mouth you would not get in trouble.

Anyone w/ me?

There is power in Tongue.

The Tongue can Speak LIFE into someone or cast them into DEFEAT

If you look at your MOM and say...

I would not be here if it was not for you
I am so thankful you made my bed all those years
I am so thankful you keep the house clean
I am so thankful you gave me an allowance
I am so thankful you work those hard hours at work to provide
I am so thankful you disciplined me.

Your MOM feels good.. you warm the mommy's heart...

BUT IF YOU SAY..

I hate you...
You never do anything for me
You are a worthless mom
Why can't you be like my friend's MOM
Why can't you make more money
Why can't you get us a bigger house
Why don't you dress like them
Why don't you look like her ...
