Ephesians

Let us join together as a community and memorize this truth together, today.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. [NIV]

 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. [NKJV]

Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. [ESV]

Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for edifying as the need may be, that it may give grace to them that hear. [ASV]

 

And a lock screen for our phone! Let us know if you’re having difficulty saving it to your device!

16 October 2012

I heard someone refer to a friend’s parents once as intentional parents: I haven’t forgotten that statement, and it is something I pray about often.  It’s fairly easy to become a parent, but to parent with discipline and instruction from God?
