Words

We are overwhelmed with words.

Proverbs 17:28 (CSB), "Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent - discerning, when he seals his lips."
We are always ready with a word, but many words bring many woes.
Proverbs 18:13 (CSB), "The one who gives an answer before he listens - this is foolishness and disgrace for him."
Proverbs 25:11 (CSB), "A word spoken at the right time is like gold apples in silver settings."
Proverbs 12:18 (CSB), "There is one who speaks rashly, like a piercing sword; but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
Words are more powerful than we realize.
Proverbs 16:24 (CSB), "Pleasant words are a honeycomb: sweet to the taste and health to the body."
Our words echo the eternal Word.
John 6:63 (CSB), "...The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life."
Luke 4:22 (CSB), "They were all speaking well of him and were amazed by the gracious words that came from his mouth..."
Speak life and salvation to every situation!
