Peacemaker: idle peace by ric gustafson
The Bible tells us to avoid idle talk which are vain useless words which do not benefit the speaker or hearer. God wants us to speak words that are full of his truth that will build up and encourage. Proverbs 13:3 says that he who guards his mouth keeps his life. Idle words can cause a lot of damage in our lives and take away our peace.
On the Day of Judgment, we will have to give account for every idle word we speak. Proverbs 16:23 says that the mind of the wise instructs his mouth. Idle words sabotages the power of peace. If our heart is not in line with God, our words will reflect that. When we stop using idle words, we will have peace in our lives.
