Oh be careful little mouth what you say, oh be careful little mouth what you say, for the Father up above is looking down in love, oh be careful little mouth what you say. We really do need to be careful of the things we say from our lips. Do you know what David said about his words in Ps 17:3? He was talking to God and asking God to hear his prayer. He said, though you probe my heart and examine me at night, though you test me, you will find nothing, I have resolved that my mouth will not sin. I think those are excellent words. We can make that same kind of resolve. Our mouth doesn’t have to lead us down the path to trouble, it can lead us in the path of righteousness, when we choose to speak words that bring life. If we want to be careful about what we say, we also have to be careful about what we think about. We have to be cautious about our thought life, because if we let thoughts hang around which aren’t Godly, we will begin to speak words that aren’t Godly. Taking it back another step, we need to watch what we let in our eyes and our ears, so that the things we hear and the things we watch don’t make our thoughts go any place they should not go. That sounds really bad, but a place your thoughts shouldn’t take you is that you are ugly, or worthless, or unloved, or nobody wants you. God would never say that about you, and if your thoughts are telling you those things, they are not God thoughts. So if we want to watch what we say, we need to watch what goes in our eyes and our ears, and especially watch what we think about. So I want to remind you…..cover your eyes, or put in ear plugs! It is that important. To keep your mouth from sin we must resolve to think about, listen to and watch only things that build us up on the inside.
