Bible Question (short): The little words |
Question (full): Matt 12:34 reads O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. This is really only about the latter section of the verse, though "for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." The question I have is kind of personal. My ex-fiancee that I still talk to daily says a lot of things that bother me personally (I don't want to say that he says them to bother or irritate me.) But I get highly aggrevated sometimes in our conversations to the point that I want to get off the phone. The main thing that scrapes my nerves is when he answers "whatever" to just casual conversation. It won't be an arguement or even a passive aggressive situation, but he's constantly using this word, with other words and phrases that grind my nerves, too. Me, personally as a Christian, pray everyday that the Lord would bridle my tongue and make me aware of what I am saying (yes, the actual words.) Are there any other verses that can put this Scripture and it's practical application in a more clear light? Should I be reading his words this deeply or am I overreacting? |
