Careless Words
Stab Like A Sword,
But Wise Words Bring Healing.
Careless
words go straight to the heart. They do immediate damage just like a sword.
There is no taking them back. The damage is done. So much damage is done in our
relationships with “careless” words! Kind words heal and help; cutting
words wound and maim. Proverbs 15:4 This is very short so please keep reading …
Scripture
18 Careless words stab like a sword, but wise words bring healing.
Observation
You
want a great verse to put up on your refrigerator then this is it!
Careless
words go straight to the heart. They do immediate damage just like a sword. There
is no taking them back. The damage is done.
Wise
words on the other hand bring healing. Wise words bring healing, but unlike
careless words, they are a process and they take time to work.
So
much damage is done in our relationships with “careless” words!
Would
you memorize this verse this week? Would you at least write it down and put it
on your refrigerator or write it on one of your mirrors or maybe even do both?
Application
I
will try my best this week to use “wise” words with Kathy and I will apologize
every time I use words that hurt her. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, help me to control my tongue. Help me speak words to Kathy that heal
and not hurt. I pray for couples today that have allowed careless words to hurt
and maim their relationships. Give them this verse for their own. Help them to
own it. Help them to put it into practice everyday.
I
pray for Pastor Bruce today. Use him in a mighty way to speak to the hearts of
Your people. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit. Give his family strength today.
Empower his wife Heather to be and to do what ever You need for her to be and
what ever You need for her to do. Thank You for allowing them to serve us today
at Christ Fellowship.
