Based on the Book of James, chapter 3, we are cautioned to be careful about the words we use - making sure they uplift and do not lead to destruction.
If we listen to the wrong voices, and if we are not responding to God, we will turn – without necessarily realising it – in the wrong direction.
The tongue is a small part of the body, but it controls so much of who and what we are. It is so easy to use the tongue in the wrong direction.
James also goes on to use another illustration: great forest fires are so often started not by something big, but by something small. Here, James is illustrating two distinct truths. First, with the tongue, our direction can be turned, influencing those who follow us. Second, if we misuse the tongue, it can cause a fire – it can cause destruction and immense damage. In verse 6, he says, "The tongue is a fire."
