"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."

Ephesians 4:29

Last night the youth group led the service at Cambray, it was really encouraging to see some of the gifts that are coming up through the church. The verse above was something that really challenged me in the talk that was part of the service. Was also thinking about it in relation to what a friend was saying on her blog about how easy it was to join in with backbiting that goes on at work. I'm so easily sucked in with that, especially at school, and I really hate that I give in so easily to the pressure of bad mouthing whoever's in charge. So through what my friend said and the talk last night, I really felt God was talking to ME, need to try and shine a bit brighter for him.....

"do not give the devil a foothold."

(And as an extra, here's a verse I felt someone might need to hear.....)
