In ancient times, fire was lit by rubbing two stones.
In
modern times, after match sticks and lighters were found, we use them
to ignite the fire. Though they produce a small quantity of fire that
lasts only for few seconds, they are more than enough to burn down a
forest to ashes.
Fires are the accidents which occur most
frequently. It very dangerous and that is why fire engines are kept in
the roads, and fire extinguishers in the premises.
The small
organ in our body named the tongue can also act like a fire. Though
small, when it hurts, it causes a deadly effect. Yes! Tongue earns for
you a good or a bad name. Therefore be careful when you use it.
Why
do you use fire? You use it for cooking and for good purposes. You don't
use it to destroy other. Do you? Likewise, use this tongue to speak
only good works. It will make people appreciate you.
“Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps himself out of trouble."(Proverbs 21:23).
