Kind words can change a person’s day & whole outlook. Point out the good you see in others. They deserve to feel special, because they are.

Be careful of what & how you speak to others. Your words have the power to encourage & build others up, or your words can leave scars that may never heal. Think before you speak. Remember what your momma use to say, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.

Proverbs 13:3 Those who guard their lips preserve their lives, but those that speak rashly will come to ruin.

Proverbs 12:18 The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

Proverbs 16:24 Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul & health to the body.

Proverbs 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.

Have a kind and healing week my friends!!!

Our Daily Bread… Featuring Paul Beverly

We can either speak praise, speak poison, or don’t speak at all. It may not always be easy but speaking poison should never be an option. If it isn’t good or uplifting, then we should keep our mouths shut. Speaking poison will only cause strife & hurt. Speaking praise into others will give them courage & hope. Choose carefully.

Be quicker to praise someone or reward them than you are to complain or put them down. They will respond a lot better to positivity. If you’re constantly negative, people will distance themselves. Positivity attracts others. Give good works in others their due.

Proverbs 3:27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it.

Proverbs 12:18 There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

Proverbs 15:1 A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Proverbs 21:23 Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps himself out of trouble.

Have a week full of praise my friends!!!
