One evening a mother was driving her eight-year-old daughter to her grandparents' home for an overnight stay.
It was late, there was very little traffic (a far cry from the usual chaos surrounding the roads during their normal rush hour driving), and they were enjoying a peaceful ride.
The daughter seemed deep in thought, and finally said, "I have a question."
"What do you want to know?" the mother responded.
"Mom, when you're driving," she asked, "are YOU ever the idiot?"
But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace. -James 3:8
