Words Are Not Just Words

I know I'm a little peculiar
and my thoughts are very different 
from the vast majority of people.
Spiritually, I'm a minority.
Sin bothers me.
And it breaks my heart to hear
a loved one speak profanity.
WORDS are IMPORTANT
WORDS are POWERFUL
WORDS can be HEALING
and
WORDS can be HURTFUL
And by your own words, you will 
be justified or condemned.
 
Using bad words is being
directly disobedient to God!

Graceful words are 
pleasing to God!

 And there is POWER in your WORDS!

Our speech is something I think 
we can all improve on. Even those of 
us who do not use curse words,
can ask God for wisdom when it comes
to our words and learn to speak
more graciously. 
Let's use our words wisely.
Let's speak life into our children
and grand children and to 
those whose lives we touch. 
 
Let's remember what THE WORD
tells us about words and let
us come to an understanding that
words are not just words.
 WORDS are POWER.
 Use them wisely!
