Proverbs 18

Hey yall, today is Proverbs 18. This passage has a lot to do w/ the mouth, speech in general, etc. I count 9 verses throughout the passage about lips, tongues, speech, mouths, etc. The one that stuck out to me the most was verse 8:


A fool's lips walk into a fight,

and his mouth invites a beating.


This just made me laugh, cause there are a few people that I instantly thought of when I read this. I think we're all guilty of this at some point or another, and some more than others. We need to control our tongues, watch what we say, that theme is riddled throughout proverbs and other parts of the Bible, this is just one verse out of many that point out the consequences of being stupid w/ your tongue.
