Put your tongue in your mouth,Pipey!

My boy Pipe used to sit there with his tongue sticking out.He did it a lot. We think he was a little slow as a result of breathing in too much exhaust when he was a kitten. I used to tell him"Put your tongue back in your mouth"! Boy, I wish someone had told me that BEFORE the MANY times I have spoken stupid, hurtful things.Yes, boring man,(raca) put your tongue in your mouth. Take it out to bless, encourage, strengthen, praise,lift up.It is a very powerful force, the tongue. Lord, help me to use mine for good.
