Do we really watch what we say?

 

 Proverbs 12:18
Reckless words pierce like a sword,
but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

Our words have power.

 What we speak daily is dispersed into the earth and manifested.

 Okay let me break it down. Have you ever heard someone say, "This is headache is killing me," or "That cost me an arm and a leg," or "I can't take one more day of this," or "I'm not good at math. Saying statements like this stamp their way into our hearts, and minds, and pretty soon we start to believe it. I think of it as, our words birth life. I also think of it as, words can destroy. If words weren't so important, then why does every word have a meaning for every situation?

1. Is the headache that I have really killing me?
2. Did I actually give one of my arms, and one of my legs to pay for something?
3. So I can't take one more of day whatever is, knowing that I can and probably will.
4. I got bad grades in math. I always have an easy out, because I have the old trusty calculator.

  (Now I try to say these things instead)

(Keep in mind, I said I try.) giggle

1. My head is telling me that I need to rest.
2. I had to adjust my budget to obtain the thing I paid for.
3. Today is more challenging then I had expected it to be.
4. I know how to add, subtract, divide, and multiply. I can even carry the one! lol

 Its kinda cool. If you want, you should try it, and see just how much power you are giving with your words. The next time I say I am starving, I will ask myself am I really starving, or am I just really hungry? (smile)

With a big smile, and a happy heart,
 and a big pat on the back from me to you-

  Keep up the great work, because we are growing beyond belief!

Until next time. God bless. Crystal Jones
