Morning All. Here is a portion of my devotions which is great advice for us all. Sweet Words. The daily stresses of life can easily cause us to get irritable with our spouses or with others. We pick at the little annoyances or criticize minor habits. We blurt out harmful, unkind words without thinking. The book of Proverbs gives us counsel about the words we use with others. It says Whoever guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from troubles(21:23). And there are these warnings: Death and life are in the power of the tongue (18:21); and Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing (12:18). Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the bones. Instead of hurling angry words that wound and stir up strife, use words of kindness, filled with love, that heal and nourish life. Kind hearts are the gardens; kind thoughts are the roots; kind words are the flowers; kind deeds are the fruits. (Our Daily Bread). Seasons Greetings and Happy Sunday to All.
