James 1:26
Today we gather around the Book of James. And as I sat with this letter in my own study this week, something caught hold of me and would not let go. When James tells us to bridle the tongue, I had always heard it the way most of us hear it "atch your mouth." Mind your manners. Don’t say the wrong thing in the wrong room.
But that is not quite what James means. To bridle the tongue is more than watching your mouth. It is being careful not to harm with it. A bridle is not a muzzle that keeps a horse silent; it is a gentle rein that keeps a powerful thing from doing damage. James is not asking us to say nothing. He is asking us to make sure that what we do say does not wound.
