Tell Them

I’m typically not a sucker for sappy greeting card commercials but this one got me…

Our words carry incredible power…

Life

Death

Belief

Doubt

Hope

Healing

That little diddy you try to teach your kids… “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.”

That’s just a bunch of rubbish.

Words can hurt, but more importantly they can bring life.

You have that choice today with each and every interaction.

Speak life-giving words today!

“Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” Ephesians 4:29

“Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.” Proverbs 16:24
