*A thought*:
Perhaps the greatest lesson that comes out of James' writings is his reminder of the power of the tongue. That "little piece of flesh between the jaws" as Martin Luther called it, takes some taming! In fact, the Scripture says that no man can tame it. No man perhaps, but with God all things are possible. Have you given God your tongue for taming yet?

2 Timothy 4:7
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith"
