Right Words

Taken from "Growing Slowly Wise" by David Roper.

"The heart is the storehouse of the body.
We must be careful, then,
of the things we put inside it.

How can we get our words right?
We must fill our thoughts
with God's words-
meditate on them day and night.

The secret of good words
is the Word of God,
delighted in and meditated upon,
for what is the Word of God
but the life of God
which always translates itself
into human speech."
