“他用炭沾我的口，说：“看哪！这炭沾了你的嘴唇，你的罪孽就除掉，你的罪恶就赦免了。””
以赛亚书 6:7
“He touched my mouth with it and said, “Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away and your sin is forgiven.””
Isaiah 6:7
The prophet Isaiah had the sense of awareness about his sin. When he saw God’s glory in a vision, he was overcome by his unworthiness. He recognized that he was “a man of unclean lips” living with people who shared the same problem (Isaiah 6:5).
What happened next gives hope. An angel touched his lips with a red-hot coal, explaining, “your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for” (v. 7).
We have moment-by-moment choices to make with our words—both written and spoken. Will they be “hazardous” material, or will we allow God’s glory to convict us and His grace to heal us so we can honor Him with everything we express?
Dear God,
help me to see how my words affect other people.
Show me how to encourage them.
