Devotion: James 3:17-18

17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

It would be good for us to read the entire chapter of James 3 on a regular basis. We all struggle with our tongue. James 3:8 says "But the tongue can no man tame". It is a constant task for us to watch what we say. Verse 9 says at the same time we bless God we curse each other, God's creation. We need to strive for verses 17 and 18.
