“Lord, keep the door of my lips, that no corrupt communication may proceed out of my mouth, but that all may be seasoned with salt, ministering grace unto the hearers. Let the law of kindness be in my tongue, that I may speak what is good for the use of edifying, and may glorify Thee in all my conversation.”
—William Romaine (1714–1795)

Reflection: Where might God be inviting me to let my speech become more gracious, restrained, and edifying today?
