The Point of No Return
May 9, 2018
The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body.
James 3:6
It wasnt as simple as just crossing another river. By law, no Roman general could lead armed troops into Rome. So when Julius Caesar led his Thirteenth Legion across the Rubicon River and into Italy in 49 bc, it was an act of treason. The impact of Caesars decision was irreversible, generating years of civil war before Romes great general became absolute ruler. Still today, the phrase crossing the Rubicon is a metaphor for passing the point of no return.
Sometimes we can cross a relational Rubicon with the words we say to others. Once spoken, words cant be taken back. They can either offer help and comfort or do damage that feels just as irreversible as Caesars march on Rome. James gave us another word picture about words when he said, The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of ones life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell (James 3:6).
When we fear we have crossed a Rubicon with someone, we can seek their forgivenessand Gods (Matthew 5:2324; 1 John 1:9). But even better is to daily rest in Gods Spirit, hearing Pauls challenge, Let your conversation be always full of grace (Colossians 4:6), so that our words will not only honor our Lord, but lift up and encourage those around us.
Lord, please guard my heart and my words today. May I speak only words that please You and bring health and healing to others.
Read What Do You Do with a Broken Relationship? at discoveryseries.org/q0703.
When words become weapons, our relationships soon become casualties.
The very practical book of James contains much instruction about the wise use of our words:
"Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry" (1:19). "Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless" (1:26). "Brothers and sisters, do not slander one another" (4:11).
Why is James's teaching to watch our words crucial for honoring God and people?

"Your Mind is Focused" |
You have your eye on the prize, and your mind is like a trap. You love having a single focus. You are highly determined and motivated. You know what you want, why you want it, and how you're going to get it.
Distractions are invisible to you. You never let yourself get off course. Once you've made up your mind, you won't change it. Period. You are well known for your stubbornness. |

Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
Your Mind is Attentive
You are always paying close attention to what's going on around you. You are focused but also a multitasker.
You are a doer, not a dreamer. You like to put all your ideas into action.
You are very productive. You are good at knowing what needs to get done first and then doing it.
You are proactive, and you try not to let anything slide. You avoid lazy thinking habits.

"Your Mind is Flexible" |
Your mind is open to any and all possibilities. You try to never have preconceived notions. You are a visionary. You are a dreamer, but your dreams are less crazy than they seem.
You are very futuristic and forward thinking. You are comfortable with change - whether you want it or not. Many people respect and admire you. Not many people have the courage to live as independently as you do. |
Can't say that I am carte blanch accepting of change, but otherwise pretty accurate.

Hi Luv.
I am Sharp.
You are rational enough to see things clearly. You don’t allow your mind to play tricks on you.
You have a crazy good head for facts. Once you commit something to memory, you remember it forever.
You have a reputation for being a perfectionist. You are a stickler for having things a certain way.
Even when a problem is difficult, your mind is up to the task. You can make sense of complexity.
The above is mostly true. I don’t think I’m a perfectionist. But the rest fits.

Whew, I thought it WAS going to be 39 kitties today. Thought we might lose Sasha but not yet, and it looks like she might be on the mend. So we’re still at 40. LOL
And it turned out to be a good day.
Seeing Berry Baby back where she belongs was the cherry on top. :-)
