Proverbs
18:4
The words
of a man's mouth are as deep waters,
and the
wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
What we
talk about can provide refreshment for those who hear us. When we speak things that are full of life we
can actually wash away the spotting of depression and despair from other
people. As we contribute to a
conversation, our words can redirect the flow away from cynicism, judgment and
anger to a flow of life, hope and encouragement. In order to have this effect our words should
be purposed to refresh and wash away confusion.
Opening our mouths with wisdom is to be a trademark for the virtuous
woman. We must not be rash with our
opinions or quick to speak what we feel.
We must be women whose words flow forth from a depth of communication
with the Lord. We should bring matters
before Him and pray over them and then hid His word in our hearts. This provides the source for such deep waters
and the wellspring of wisdom.
