My mouth was once filled with crass language, hasty and thoughtless retorts and stinging venom with the right instigation.  My  words got me in trouble many times, as then, they mirrored the deadness of my unrejuvenated spirit.

There are two things I really like and enjoy doing uninterrupted: eating and sleeping.   I generally don’t like to speak or be spoken to while I’m eating.

On the right day and in the right situation, that simple phrase could be as powerful as an entire sermon. It’s powerful because we know that it is what we
