Mid Afternoon Meditation 2-8-17

100_0734

I said to myself, “I will watch what I do
    and not sin in what I say.
I will hold my tongue
    when the ungodly are around me.”
But as I stood there in silence—
    not even speaking of good things—
    the turmoil within me grew worse.
The more I thought about it,
    the hotter I got,
    igniting a fire of words: Psalm 39:1-3

What are some things you do in order to hold your tongue in difficult circumstances?
