;) Brenda,
I found this scripture after our discussion about this the other day. Read if like Mathew 15:18-19. it sums it up in a nut shell and may help you. It basically says things that come out of the mouth come from the heart. I hope this helps.
With God's Love and Understanding,
Pam

I better give my heart a bleach and hot sauce enema, and wash my mouth out with gasoline, lye soap, and kerosine. :)

Mat_15:11 it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the
mouth; this defiles a person."
Mat_15:17 Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and is expelled?
Mat_15:18 But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this
These may help for scripture quotes.

--- End quote ---
Usually a person swears when their angry about something, at least that's when it escapes my lips, which is what makes think that it's just a symptom of a lot of built up anger as a result of unforgivness from when somebody hurt us in the past.
That would explain why the habit is so incredibly difficult to break!
Richard D:
I was just reflecting on Ray’s teachings about this all being and experience of good and evil for the propose of making us sons and daughters of God in His likeness.
Should we not be seeing or experiencing everything from sexual immorality to murder and every perversion under heaven.
And if not for the grace of God in our lives we all would be somewhere in between all these things.
It’s God’s purpose that this wickedness and evil exist in the first place. It’s easy to love those who love us and to be kind to those who are kind to us but what about those who get in our face?
What about those who wish us all the harm on earth and talking to us with venom coming out of their mouth?
What about those who lie to us and rip us off? How about those who plot our demise at our place of employment?
If we can love these then we have truly learned to love. Or how can I know what love is except I can find at least one person in this world to hate me?
We need all this evil and wickedness to understand the difference by comparison.
That’s my take on it. ;D
In His Love. Richard.
