Ps. 141:3 Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth;
keep watch over the door of my lips!
I was awaken this morning by thoughts of not knowing exactly what I had commented on another blog yesterday. I don't always remember exactly what I write and most of the time, lately, I have been praying as I read some portion of Scripture and then am just writing down what I think as I go along.
What I was awakened because I am not sure of my sensitivity in my post, so I wanted to go back and read it. I am not sure that I will ever know the answer to my sleeplessness in this matter, as the post was not on the site. I often pray, in many circumstances now, that God would open and close doors so that where I was supposed to go is blatantly clear and so I am hoping His has shielded what was mot meant to get there.
What I am not so clearly trying to say is, I hope that if I was insensitive, God has blocked the comment from getting to the person/persons who were not supposed to read it. I am also reminding myself not to speak/write too quickly and especially to be praying for God's guidance over each thing I say, in whatever form. If I am to be a blessing and encouragement to others it can only be because He is allowing it and I can easily misspeak w/o going to Him first.
I pray that I have not posted anything that has been insensitive to you readers and to God's grace in my life. If I have please forgive me and know that He is still working on me. God, please guard my lips and fingers as I go through this time, that I may be an encouragement, rather than a curse, to those around me. Give me the exact words you want me to say, and if I push through anyway, block it from being seen or heard. You can do this.
