中文灵修：禁止口舌

若有人自以为虔诚，却不勒住他的舌头，反欺哄自己的心，这人的虔诚是虚的。（雅1:26）

如果我们可以胜过自己的舌头，那么世上的问题瞬间便会得到解决。假如没有恼怒愤恨、没有亵渎的话语、没有谎言怨言，没有抱怨牢骚；假如没有污秽的言语、没有不公的批判，这个世界将会变的不一样！圣经教导我们，如果一个人可以掌控自己的舌头，那么他就可以控制自己的整体人格。说话之前我们应该问自己三个问题：所说的是不是真的？有没有益处？荣耀神吗？如果时常想起这三个问题，那么会减少很多恶言恶语，将会带来灵魂苏醒，教会复兴。

今日祷告：
主啊，我意识到时常反省自己的舌头是多么地重要，祈求您帮助我每天所讲的言语都能够讨你喜悦。
奉主的名求，阿们！

Daily Devotion：Tame Your Tongue

"If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.—James 1:26

The problems of the world could be solved overnight if men could get victory over their tongues. Suppose there was no anger, no profanity, no lying, no grumbling or complaining; suppose there were no dirty stories told, no unjust criticism—what a different world this would be! The Bible teaches that a man who can control his tongue can control his whole personality. We should ask ourselves three questions before we speak: Is it true? Is it kind? Does it glorify Christ? If we would always think before we speak, there would be much less evil speaking, and there would soon be a spiritual awakening that would sweep the church in America.

Prayer for the day：
May I remember how important it is to keep a check on my tongue. I pray that my conversation this day will be pleasing in Your sight, Lord.
In Jesus' name,Amen！
