I know that I have been guilty of having spoken wrongly or too quickly on more than one occasion resulting in hurting the spirit of others. However, I usually realize I have done so as soon as I've done it and can attempt to rectify it or at least apologize.
I have difficulty understanding why some people do not understand how badly they have hurt someone with their witty comments. Maybe don't realize how damaging their tongues can be to the spirits; the lives of the ones who bear the brunt of their wit. Sarcasm really is not that funny. It is hurtful. Intentional sarcasm breaks the spirit.
May God help us to speak with gentle tongues that we will do no harm to the spirits of others.
God Peace - Pr. J
