Words Are Powerful

 

Wise is the man, wise is the woman, who speaks words that breathe life and build up and encourage and affirm.  Wise is the person who is forever alert to speak words of life, to a child, a spouse, a friend, a student, a neighbor, a co-worker, a stranger, a store clerk, someone who looks troubled.
 
Life-giving words!  We can change lives forever!  Words like these:

·         I love you. 

·         I respect you. 

·         I believe in you. 

·         I am so proud of you! 

·         You can do this! 

·         You are so good at painting! 

·         I love the way you shared your toys with your brother. 

·         Could I pray for you right now? 

·         You are going to get through this, for God will see you through. 

·         I have been praying for you every day. 

·         I am so sorry; will you forgive me? 

·         Thank you so much for that gift.

When words like these are spoken from the heart, they breathe life into people.
