One final thought - three times a day we start the Amidah, or silent prayer, which is our chance to speak directly to Hashem, with the following verse: "Oh, Lord, please open my lips, and let my mouth voice your praises." Now, imagine if you wanted to bring a gift to a king.
We are obligated to try and keep our lips and our speech pure, and not to abuse these gifts the entire day.
