A Question To The Family Of God [Spirituality & Religion]

[b][c=#7700B2]casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
II Corinthians 10:5[/c][/b]

How do you keep from saying everything that pops up in your head. Lately I regret quite a lot of things that come out of my mouth. I just don't know how to talk to people and keep my opinions to myself. I know avoiding with people is a cowardly move considering the fact that I still live with my parents. I know God is in the process of working things out for me cause now I don't get all defensive and upset when someone points out that I had no business saying what I said anymore but it wouldn't hurt to do something right.

Try saying things to yourself in your mind before saying it to others.. At lest then you will have a chance to modify what you say if it sounds inappropriate..

And yes prayer is always a good thing.. Request help from God to help you say what needs to be said in the way He wills it to be said..

It is not cowardly to be cautious if you know you have a weakness in an area of your life.

Lastly forgive yourself because we are all just human and so we all from time to time say things we later regret saying.. Jesus has dealt with our transgressions and we are forgiven so no point in being unforgiving towards ourselves..
