"The good man brings out of his good treasure what is good; and the evil man brings out of his evil treasure what is evil. But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." -Matthew 12:35-37

This passage of Scripture is one of my favorites . . . and one that I have often gone back to when struggling with my tongue. It is so true that "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh"! And if our hearts are filled with Christ, then what proceeds from our mouths will be pleasing in His sight.
Thank you for sharing these verses!
Thank you for the comment, Sarah! I would agree - it is important to fill the inside with good things so that those will come out.
