Your words have power!


Nature
Never underestimate the power your words have.
Never underestimate how deep they can go into peoples lives.
Never underestimate the potential for your words to hurt or to heal!
Every time you open your mouth to speak, quickly think;
"Is what I'm about to say going to hurt or heal?"
Proverbs 12:18 "Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing."

Sadly, Christmas often seems to be a time when family get together's turn sour, & hurtful things are said in the heat of the moment.

So be aware of what you are saying & how you are saying it!

You have the potential to calm & heal, or to enrage & hurt!

May God grant each of us the wisdom we need as we speak.
