The fire season is coming up in Maine. Smokey the Bear will be out there warning people like he has for the past eighty years: Don’t play with matches; put out campfires and don’t throw out lit cigarettes. One thing not included in Smokey’s list is the tongue which has caused more damage than any fire.
Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.
Be careful with that thing between your teeth. Brought to you by Smokey who is always on the job.
Give it some careful consideration.
