To Guard Our Tongue


Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings and protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please guide and help us to find the strength to guard our tongue both in what we say to others and what we say to ourselves in our thoughts and internal deeds of thought as we try to make sense of the outcome of every day here in Your Creation among Your Children as we seek Your Kingdom, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
