Proverbs - The Mouth of the Wicked

                                                                Proverbs 10:11

                                 The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life:

 but violence covereth

 the mouth of the wicked.           

                        A well is something which gets its water source from deep below the surface.  To have this mouth that is like a well we must be ladies who go below the surface of Christian values to the very heart of Christ Himself.  Do you take the time to ponder on His character?  Do you seek Him for His purposes for your life in the things that come your way?  Do you ask Him to open your eyes to His heart on a matter? The Lord Jesus says in Luke 6:45, “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.”  What are you filling up with before you see your husband at the end of the day?  What are you putting into your heart in the morning before the children wake up?  What are you meditating on throughout your day?  You will see a direct link between what you put in and what comes out.

                        People go to a well for refreshment and to quench their thirst.  Can people come to you and receive from your mouth things that their soul is longing for?   Can your children come to you with a frustration, bad attitude or wrong conclusion and your words can wash away the impurities and set them right on track?  In the midst of a conversation polluted with cynicism and judgment do your words well up with gentle rebuke washing away the seeds of division in the body of Christ?  Oh Lord help our mouths to be like wells today.
