"If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen." ~ 1 Peter 4:11
Rather than saying whatever we want, Peter reminds us that our words and actions are reflective of God.
People see us Christians as people of God, which we all are, and that should be motivation enough to have our words and actions glorify Him.
Someone may see our actions or hear our words and turn away from God or maybe turn towards Him depending on what we portray Christianity as.
So, keep this in mind the next time you are about to act or speak foolishly. Changing your ways may change a life.
