God says, give me the straight goods

God says, give me the straight goods, don’t dress up your communication. Below are some verses that remind me of how my communication should be with God and others “the straight goods, no fluffy stuff”. It’s a good reminder; we live in a world that manipulates with words, a world that tries not to hurt, but often does by not being straight up.
James 5:12And since you know that he cares, let your
language show it. Don't add words like "I swear to God" to your own words. Don't show your impatience by concocting oaths to hurry up God. Just say yes or no. Just say what is true. That way, your language can't be used against you.
Mathew 33-37"And don't say anything you don't mean. This counsel is embedded deep in our traditions. You only make things worse when you lay down a smoke screen of pious talk, saying, 'I'll pray for you,' and never doing it, or saying, 'God be with you,' and not meaning it. You don't make your words true by embellishing them with religious lace. In making your speech sound more religious, it becomes less true. Just say 'yes' and 'no.' When you manipulate words to get your own way, you go wrong.
