Not to be an emo and “where my heart on my tear-stained sleeve” with this particular post, but lately I’ve thought A LOT about how I would feel if all of the unkind (and I mean all. everything. about everyone.) words I’ve said, whether serious or “joking,” were played back to me. I think that I might literally cut my tongue out. Some words spoken out of anger, some out of stupidity, some spoken as a means of self-glorification or self-affirmation. I can recall (and I believe because of the Holy Spirit) some recent specific incidents, which I wish I could erase. I do believe that the Holy Spirit would not want me to wallow in my guilt but rather aspire, with conviction and whole dependence on His grace and strength to BE KIND and TENDER-HEARTED and to walk in love. Walk in LOVE.
