Day 2: Out of the Abundance
Reading: Proverbs 4:20-27; James 3:1-12
Devotional: "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks." Our words are not random; they're windows into our souls. What fills your heart will inevitably overflow into your speech. When we're filled with bitterness, criticism flows. When we're consumed with anxiety, worry dominates our conversations. But when Christ fills us, grace, encouragement, and truth emerge. James reminds us that the tongue reveals our true spiritual condition. Today, listen to yourself. What do your words reveal about what's abundant in your heart? Are you speaking life or death? The solution isn't merely controlling your tongue, but allowing God to transform your heart. Confess where your heart has wandered from Him, and ask the Spirit to fill you afresh with His love and truth.
