Kind
Words Are Like Honey –
Sweet
To The Soul
And
Healthy For The Body.
Scripture
Proverbs
16
Observation
I
googled what I am getting ready to share with you so I know that it
must be true! Just kidding of course about it being true just because
I found it on the internet!
But
according to Google there are over one million words in the Englixh
language. In a dictionary you find about 170,000 words and most
people (again according to Google) know about 20,000 to 30,000 words!
But
more important than all of that is this, “Are my words when I speak
to people, are they kind?
How
I talk to people today is more important than anything else!
Proverbs
10:32
The
lips of the godly speak helpful words, but the mouth of the
wicked speaks perverse words.
Application
Lord,
help me to be kind today. Help me to put Proverbs 16:24 into practice
today!
How
about you? Meanness/harshness or kindness? The choice is ours to
make!
Proverbs
12:18
Proverbs
10:32
The
lips of the godly speak helpful words,
but the mouth of the wicked speaks perverse words.
1
Peter 2:1
So
get rid of all evil behavior. Be done with all deceit, hypocrisy,
jealousy, and all unkind speech.
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, it is way too easy for me to be short and even down right
mean with the people who I love the most. Help me to guard my heart
and my mouth. Help me to use wise words that bring healing and not
careless hurtful words that stab like a sword.
I
pray for anyone reading this blog today. Help them to use kind words
today. May they speak helpful words today.
Psalm
19:14
May
the words of
my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord,
my rock and my redeemer.
