Conversation Control
by Steven Rouse
If someone were to stop you in mid-sentence at any given point in the day, what would you most likely be taking about? What fills your conversation? What fills your mind? Is it sports? Academics? Relationships? Daily events? God?
While there is nothing wrong in those first 4 things by themselves, when our conversation is filled with things of this world, our minds will follow. And not only our minds, but the minds of those whom we come into contact with throughout our days. Paul exhorted Timothy to “avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness” (2 Timothy 2:16).
How much of our conversation is merely worldly and empty? However, we can do better! Each of us has complete control of our speech and of our general topics of conversation. It may seem awkward at first to begin a spiritual conversation, and I think that Satan uses that to our demise every day. It can be a simple question that starts up a spiritual conversation: How has God blessed you today? How are you doing spiritually? Do you need prayers for anything right now?
We can help one another in this to become more spiritually minded. The skill of conversation steering must be one that we concern ourselves with, both with fellow Christians and with the lost souls we encounter. Start now—greet the next person you see with something spiritual. It’s not as difficult as it seems, and with consistency, this habit will help us and those we encounter to draw closer to our awesome Father each and every day.
