The Daily Dose #0008

Inconsistency in speech undermines trust, which is essential in all areas of your life. It is imperative to recognize that your words carry weight, and with every utterance, you either build or erode the trust others place in you.

In a world where ambiguity reigns, let your speech be true. When you ensure your words align with your actions, you not only honor the Lord but you help establish an environment where trust can flourish. It requires discipline, but will be worth the effort as you become more trustworthy.

"But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your 'yes' be yes and your 'no' be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation." — James 5:12
