Chosen Words

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in all that we say and do. Please help us to choose the right words to use as we deal with others, and maybe not speak at all if it would not benifit anyone or if our words might hurt others without the profit of wise instruction that might help others.
Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings that You have given us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

KJV*
Pr 15:1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. 
Pr 15:2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness. 
Pr 15:3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. 
Pr 15:4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. 

Pr 15:23 A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it! 

Pr 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.

Jas 1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

Jas 3:2 For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.
