Week 2: Tuesday

Chapter 3...here we go.

On page 48 of the book Keep It Shut, Karen lists four verses from Proverbs as Old Testament tweets.  They are printed again here for your convenience.  Take a look at them and choose the one that you think you need to remember most in your life right now.


  • "When there are many words, sin is unavoidable, but the one who controls his lips is wise." (10:9)
  • "Do you see a man who speaks too soon?  There is more hope for a fool than for him." (29:20)
  • "The one who gives an answer before he listens-this is foolishness and disgrace for him." (18:13)
  • "Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues." (17:28)
Can you think of a specific reason or situation that prompted you to choose the verse that you did?  Post the reason in the comment box below.  What change would you like to make that could change that situation?

    This goes along with my comment from yesterday. I usually operate under the idea that if I talk it out, I can solve whatever problem I am faced with. I need to stop, listen, and look to God for the answers instead of trying to "blab" my way through it.
