Holding the Tongue

Let me tell you, sometimes God decides to test me on holding my tongue. (Or practically biting it OFF!) That is HARD for me especially if I know you are wrong! (Hah!) It is HARD for me especially if the person is speaking out like a fool. Seriously, it's HARD for anyone I suppose but it's REALLY hard for me.

I know that there is a time and a place... yada, yada...

I was tested and I'm sure it won't be the last time. (Did you know that they don't stitch tongues? They just let them heal.)

Let me tell you, I have been in a great stretching and growth period for a long time now ~ WITH NO BREAK! I'm ready for a break... I guess I better just rest in Jesus because life IS growth.

This was lighthearted (as I read it) but I KNOW it is a heavy subject!

If you DO bite your tongue off though--it won't be such a problem holding it (wink, wink).

Praying blessings on you my GROWING friend!

God bless!

Enjoyed your comment about not being able to stitch the tongue. My oldest daughter as a toddler tripped and took a big chunk out of her tongue and it grew back. Amazing.

Anyway I know that "biting your tongue" is not an easy thing to do. In some shape or form I usually need to do this at some point every day. Hoping your situation soon resolves itelf.
