Today’s Story

There's a wild animal on the loose in Coleraine! And it's dangerous. Untamed, it can strike at any moment, inflicting a painful sting. It's covert, yet bold; cunning, yet spontaneous.

This wild animal is The Human Tongue! And it's wagging big lies about Brooke and Luke. But, all these rumors of romance are threatening to split up a great friendship.

If Brooke thinks she's had enough of getting razzed at school, wait until she hears what's being said about her at home…

HOW ABOUT YOU…When is the last time you unleashed a wild rumor on a classmate? Have you ever been hurt by someone else talking about you?

CHECK THIS OUT… Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be (James 3:10). It is strange that with the same tool—the mouth—we can send great praises and prayers up to God, and then use it to quickly tear someone down. So what should we do?

Pray that God would be the guide of your words and that He would use them to encourage the people you talk to each day.
