“When you talk too much, sin cannot be avoided” (Prov. 10:19). Christians who are attentive to themselves call all feelings windows of the soul, which, if opened, will leave all inner warmth. But the widest opening, the spacious door that lets through this warmth in abundance, is a language that is given the will to speak as much and as it wants. What harm all the senses together cause to attention and the inner structure, the same is caused by verbosity, for it touches the objects of all the senses and forces the soul to see without seeing, without hearing to hear, without touching to touch. What is dreaming within, is verbosity without; but the latter is more harmful, because it is factual and therefore more impressionable. In addition, in close connection with it is conceit, insolence and self-indulgence - these are storm-like destroyers of the internal structure, leaving behind insensibility and blindness. How can you then avoid the sin of verbosity?! You might be interested in:
