Loose Lips
Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.
Proverbs 12:22
The World War II slogan of "Loose Lips Might Sink Ships" was intended to protect our sailors by preventing information from reaching the enemy. Solomon provides a stern warning to us on failing to watch our lips above. While the war campaign slogan had an immediate impact upon the lives of our sailors, Solomon's warning has a much farther reaching impact - the lying lips will have an impact upon where we spend eternity.
We can not have a heart of gold and lips spewing out lies. It is like having salt water and pure water in the same glass - the pure water becomes salty. As we pursue a closer walk with God, let's ensure that we keep a close watch on what we say. Our lying lips will hinder our ability to show the love of God to others.
