My Tongue

by PamFord Davis  
1/09/2025 / Devotionals

Seriously, have you ever taken a good long look at your tongue? It’s kind of gross; not a very pretty sight. It’s best to keep our tongues tucked inside our mouths and hidden from view. Don’t get me wrong; I know my tongue is needed for speech and it allows me to taste my favorite foods.

Don’t be surprised when a tongue slips out when least expected.

Years ago, my husband and I took one of our grandsons to a drive-through safari park. It was non eventful until a bison stuck his head in and licked the window with its long tongue. Now, that was gross!

“For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers,these things ought not to be so (James 3:7-10 ESV).”

My keyboard serves as an extension of my tongue.

“My heart overflows with a pleasing theme;
    I address my verses to the king;
    my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe (Psalm 45:1 ESV).”

I’m a child of the King!
