Pray for my ability to keep my big mouth shut

[ccorley78]

:o As some may know I have 5 children of my own ranging from 10 to 3 months. Well, this whole week I've had 4 of 5 of my cousins children ages ranging from 10 to 2. So here at my house right now i've got two 10 year olds, a 9 year old, an 8 year old, a 5 year old, a 4 year old, two 2 year olds and a 3 month old.

Pray I make it thru the week, that God puts a lock on my tongue and gives be wisdom and courage to deal with all these babies as the blessings each one of them are.

Thank you

Its not that bad. They have been so good considering. My family always takes walks every night after dinner. The extras really like that. There have been times, but take you Jesus, those times haven't been many. I love kids tho. That prolly help. Thanks for the prayers.

I too have trouble with my mouth. Ephesians 4:29 that says " Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouth, only that which is helpful in building up others according to their need that it may benefit those who listen." NIV

If I keep this verse on my mind all day, it really helps control my tongue.

A hymn we used to sing a lot contains this verse -

Let me no wrong or idle word
Unthinking say ;
Set thou a seal upon my lips ,
Just for today .
