Our words can hurt feelings and break hearts.  Our words can damage our relationships with others in the world around us.  The good news is that God has given us the ability to bless, encourage, and worship with our words.  Remember that death and life is in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21) and with God’s help we can be a positive light in any situation by being careful about what we say and how we say it.  We need to watch the words that we say to ourselves and others.  Begin to speak the Word over your life, and the lives of others.  Use your words to bless, encourage, and edify.  Use words to build people up and not tear them down.  Be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to get angry (James 1:19). By doing so, you will preserve your mind, your body, and your spirit, as well alleviate stress in your life. Give it a try today!

Take care and be blessed!
