THE WORDS OF OUR MOUTH - Part 1

THE WORDS OF OUR MOUTH

The words of our mouth are the ropes that can hang us high or tie us low, we can speak words of life or death. Never realizing, that what we see today, is a direct result of what we said yesterday. Simple but most never fully understand how to control what they say. We speak with such recklessness and wonder why our life is a wreck. All because we never learned how to harness the power of our tongue. We have the power to shape our world how we choose, needless to say, we would rather repeat what we see and hear, instead of using our imagination along with our words to build a future better than our now.

Words build, heal, strip, destroy and kill. Most killers will never go to trial, and most murders will never be arrested for their heinous crimes, the world feels the loss, but the perpetrator will never be tried for the crime.

 These crimes are crimes on hearts, minds, and ideas, there is no law against dream killing, heartbreaking, and spirit-crushing. These crimes never register on crime reports; These crimes are considered natural, but all the same, they are crimes.

Well here is the deal, all crimes begin in the heart, then it flows to the mind and if left unchecked will come to the hands and feet. That deep seeded death that we were thinking on, is acted out for all the world to see. This is not new, but we are seeing it more and more, what most would call senseless acts of violence. Not speaking about the true criminals in our world. It not the Jihad, or anyone else whom we deem a terrorist, it is us. We are the terrorist, we destroy others because we have lost hope. We are the killers, we speak death, seek violence in our words.

Think for a moment, really consider this if we spoke to others how we would want them to speak to us, we would have less hostility in the world. My opinion is that we speak to others the way we speak to ourselves with hate, disdain, and lack of trust. We have tossed out the Golden Rule, treat others how you want to be treated and replaced it with the sliding rule, treat others like you treat yourselves. We love others as we love ourselves, poorly. We are the reason that the world is so dark, cold and lack humanity because we lack it.

We are hung by our tongues, how can we say we are full of love when we speak nothing but hate first to ourselves and then to others? If we truly love ourselves we would show that love to others. We don’t kill because we love, we kill because we loathe, fear or are ashamed of ourselves.

You don’t kill someone you love, you only kill what you loathe, fear or are ashamed of. Truth is this, we kill because we are afraid, ashamed or guilty ourselves; the ironic part about it, our attempts to harm others, we are killing no one but ourselves. The words of our mouth are our weapons of mass destruction. Why are we so reckless with our words? We fear ourselves, yes we can loathe ourselves and most assuredly we are ashamed of ourselves. Not because we are weak, but because of our true strength. We fear the love that is in us, that love challenges us to make a difference and that difference requires us to work on ourselves.

This is the reason we murder others with our words, yes I know sometimes we kill by mistake, but more often than not, it is on purpose, we are lashing out because we refuse to look in the mirror and deal with the real target which is our negative self-identity. In my next post, we look at some solutions to how to overcome negative self-talk.
