Broken promises

“And Jephath made a vow to the Lord…” 
(Judges 11:30)

Whatever promises we speak - especially in times of dire stress, anxiety, anger, and haste – be prepared to follow through; if you don’t, and you do not seek forgiveness for making such promises, then, like Jephath, you will eventually eat your words.

Hence, adhere to these very wise words, Be 
“…slow to speak…”. 
(James 1:19)
