Image for the poem "Bridling the Serpent."

"Bridling the Serpent."

People let words become prisons to them
and they apply them to each other just so
that they can control each other through
their power that they possess.

We have to rise up out of that mentality
and not esteem the words as absolute and
binding, but, perceive the heart from within
where they are derived.

Proverbs 18:21

"Death and life are in the power of the
tongue: and they that love it shall eat the
fruit thereof."

The tongue and its poisoned arrows,
(words), are like that old saying...

"Those who Live by the Sword will Die by
the Sword."

We have to Crucify the tongue and its
fruit, (words), and live unto a New Perception
through Christ so that we do not judge,
(discern in error), issues before their time.
