Proverbs 12 - Use thy tongue for good!

Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. ~ Proverbs 12:18
To quote Spiderman's uncle, "With great power comes great responsibility..." Words have amazing power - to hurt or to heal.

"From the fruit of his lips a man is filled with good things as surely as the work of his hands reward him." (12:14)

This is a good reminder to me if I am interpreting it correctly. It reminds me of a quote, something like "be careful of your ideas because they become your thoughts, be careful of your thoughts because they become your words, be careful of your words because they become your actions; you." I struggle with aligning my words with my heart and my actions.
