Breakfast with Solomon - Proverbs 21:23
"He who guards his mouth and his tongue, guards his soul from troubles" One of the quickest and surest ways to get in trouble is to say things you shouldn't say. We live in a culture that seems to believe that if you think or feel something, it has to be said. Nothing could be further from the truth. We need to wrestle our tongue until it is under control and it only moves at the impulse of wisdom. What is amazing is that our tongue helps manipulate air as it passes out of ou

Breakfast with Solomon - Proverbs 26:20
