This photo say it all, it's one of my favorite sayings and I tell others this whenever
the opportunity arrives, it's a freeing process of loving yourself enough to forgive
and move on with your life. This doesn't mean you forget, only that you'll not be in
bondage by what others have done.. JMSQ 5/30/2015

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the heare...rs.... Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

—Ephesians 4:29, 5:4
One of the most shocking things in the church is the dirty-mouthed Christian who always walks on the borderline. There is no place for borderline stories that embarrass some people, and there is nothing about sex or the human body that is funny if your mind is clean.
There was once a gathering of officers, and George Washington was present in the room. One of the young officers began to think about a dirty story that he wanted to tell, and he got a smirk on his face. He looked around and said, "I'm thinking of a story. I guess there are no ladies present." Washington straightened up and said, "No, young man, but there are gentlemen." The young officer shut his mouth and kept the dirty story inside his dirty head and heart.
Anything you could not tell with Jesus present, do not tell. Anything you could not laugh at were Jesus present, do not laugh at.
What an important reminder, Lord! Keep my thoughts pure. Amen.
