Girlfriend, You Better Hush!

Ladies what do we do best, besides shop for cute shoes or dress our butts off? We run that mouth! Hands down, no one can out talk us or out argue us. We are the runner up when it comes to: transporting gossip, telling somebody off, being the expertise at everything, and even cussing someone out if need be – you haven’t been cussed out, until you’ve been cussed out by a woman. We take home ALL the academy awards for every category when it comes to running our mouths. We always have to have the last word.

Our tongue can be our best friend or our worst enemy. The Bible says that life and death is in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21). Therefore, we need to be more mindful of our words. You can hit someone and the wound will heal, but you can damage someone with words that you can’t take back. How many of us have lost best friends, lovers, husbands, family members, broken up households, or missed out on successful opportunities because of our mouth?

Even a fool is thought to be wise when they keep quiet. Your words can deem you as a silly woman or a wise woman. Only a silly woman runs off at the mouth all time with vain words.

Rule of thumb: if your words cannot be edifying or speak wisdom, then girlfriend, you better hush!

XOXO,
