Ephesians 4:25-29
I just read this with meaning that I'd not noticed before....the word CORRUPT- we always THINK of it as only foul or inappropriate language- BUT CORRUPT can be EVERYTHING that cuts down, demeans, destroys, or harms another...in other words; anything that can cause someone to become discouraged, feel hopeless, helpless, unfit, loss of strength, or loss of self esteem......how often words harm the very ones we love!
Let NO CORRUPT words come from you...speak words of love and encouragement ALWAYS!
What we SAY and DO-absolutely WILL come back to us at some point, won't it?
"You may eat your words tomorrow-
Let them be sweet today!"
"You may eat your words tomorrow-
Let them be sweet today!"
They will know we are Christians by our Love. Let us love in word and deed.

Thanks Linda,
ReplyDeleteyep....I always have to look at things from ten different perspectives and analyze it to pieces!
I remember once when Pastor Jim did a sermon on two perspectives of the scripture they that wait upon the Lord- "wait as in wait- and wait as in serve Him" I love the different points of view!
