God's thoughts and words are perfect, what about yours?

I'm sure most, if not all of you that read my devotion would agree that God's throughts and words are perfect.

The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple; The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes; The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, Yea, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover by them Your servant is warned, And in keeping them there is great reward. Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults. Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.
(Psalms 19:7-14)

But waht about OUR thoughts and words? God's Word tells us that we should desire His judgments and ways more than gold, and consider His judgments and ways sweeter than honey.

We all have secret faults in the sense of faults that may not even be apparent to us. But often it is these 'secret' faults, crackes, weaknesses, unrighteousnesses that undermine our thought and emotional patterns so that our words and musings are less then God honoring. God is our strength and our redeemer. IN CHRIST we CAN OVERCOME! So how about submitting the meditations of our hearts and the words that we choose to God? How about asking that He judge our heart's ponderings and our words, and that He purge out the bad stuff? (i.e., the less than righteous stuff).

Here's to purity in all it's beauty. A purity that springs forth from the depths and secret places of our heart.

Yours in Him,
Pastor B.
