If we intend to make love a habit, then we must develop the habit of loving people with our words. When we want to lash out, when emotions overtake us, when we want to 'spew'.
Sometimes we feed on the negative in life, we see and magnify all that is wrong with people and things. That is when we need to remember the good news. Recall the positive things God has done in our lives. Give Thanks. And remember... one step at a time.
"There are those who speak rashly, like the piercing of a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Proverbs 12:18
We want to build up others. "Anxiety in a man's heart weighs it down, but an encouraging word spoken at the right time"..... How healing it can be! Proverbs 15:23. When you are anxious, depressed, tired, remember all the ways God has blessed you! And this will help you with your speech!
Proverbs 23:7 "As a person thinks in his heart, so is he!"
I will offer You Thanksgiving! Our gift to God is our gratitude!
