Proverbs 18:21

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it and indulge it will eat its fruit and bear the consequences of their words.

If we don’t use caution, we will speak all that we believe and feel. And not everything we think should be spoken out loud and even thought in our minds. A flame needs a spark, and strife usually starts with a spoken word, but words are meant to lift each other up and not tear each other down.
