《今日靈修默想》：「原來我們在許多事上都有過失；若有人在話語上沒有過失，他就是完全人，也能勒住自己的全身。」（雅3:2）
默想一：基督徒為什麼不能輕看舌頭？因為它是控制我們生活的關鍵，也和我們的生命有關。當人能夠勒住自己舌頭的時候，就能夠勒住自己的整個人。我們只有順從聖靈的引導才能控制容易犯罪的舌頭，也能控制其他的部位。控制舌頭不但是靈性成熟的證據，更是成熟的途徑。真有基督生命的人，他會自然地發出讚美，說出造就人的話。
默想二：為什麼在教會裡要嚴禁一切咒詛或毀謗的話？因為當你咒詛弟兄姊妹時，你就是不愛神所造且帶有神形像的人，也等於咒詛神。在教會裡任何言語的放肆，是不尊耶穌基督爲元首，也不合乎聖徒的體統。我們的神是聖潔的，我們務要活出聖潔，包括說出來的話語。
禱告：阿爸父神，感謝袮造我一張口，求袮使用我的口，使『汙穢的言語一句不可出口，只要隨事說造就人的好話，叫聽見的人得益處』（弗4:29）。我承認舌頭很難制伏，但我相信『靠著那加給我力量的，凡事都能做』（腓4:13）。願我心中所存的意念，口中所說的每一句話，都在祢聖靈的恩膏下造就人，並榮耀祢的名。奉主耶穌寶貴的聖名禱告。阿們！
《Today’s spiritual meditation》: “We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.” (Jas 3:2)
Meditation one: Why can’t Christians overlook their tongues? It is because the tongue is a key that dominates our lives and also links to our lives. When a person can bridle the tongue, and then can keep the whole body in check. Only by obeying the guidance of the Holy Spirit can we control the tongue that is easy to sin, and then can also control other parts. Controlling the tongue is not only a testimony of spiritual maturity; it is also a way towards maturity. Those who really have the life of Christ will naturally utter praises and speak words of edification.
Meditation two: Why should all curses or despites be strictly prohibited in the church? Because when you curse brothers and sisters, you do not love those who are created by God and bear the image of God, which is equivalent to curse God. Any presumptuous speech in the church means not magnify Jesus Christ as the head, and are not in a way worthy of the saints. Our God is holy, and we must live out the the holiness, including the words we speak out.
Prayer: God Abba Father, thank You for giving me a mouth, Please use my mouth so “not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen” (Eph 4 :29). I admit that the tongue is difficult to tame, but I believe that “I can do all this through Him Who gives me strength” (Phi 4:13). May the thoughts in my heart and every word in my mouth, under the anointing of Your Holy Spirit, edify people and glorify Your name. I pray in the precious holy name of the Lord Jesus. Amen!
