The Bible teaches us that when we bless others, we will also inherit a blessing.
So obviously, what should come out of our mouths should be blessings and there will be blessings upon blessings.
But we know that it is not always the case.
Because when we get irritated, annoyed, upset or angry, what comes out of our mouths are curses and words that are unpleasant.
In the 1st reading, the Lord says this: A curse on the man who puts his trust in man, who relies on things of the flesh, whose heart turns from the Lord.
But it is not the Lord who curses such a person. It is the person who curses himself and he also lets out curses on others.
The Lord also says that a blessing on the man who puts his trust in the Lord, with the Lord as his hope.
Let us put our faith and trust in the Lord and also put our hope in His blessings on us.
Let us ask for God's blessings and let us also in turn be a blessing for others.
