Pope Francis on Keeping Our Tongues in Check

“May the Lord grant us the grace to watch our tongues and be careful of what we say of others, because through our weakness and sin, we often find it easier to insult and denigrate than say or do good. This was the lesson at the heart of Pope Francis’ homily Thursday morning at Mass. . . .”

A recent Vatican Radio broadcast reported on this homily of Pope Francis in which he called on Christians to “‘prune’ our tongues a little, ‘prune’ the comments that we make of others and outbursts that lead us to an easy anger or insult.”
