Tuesday, November 13th - Proverbs 12:18-19

Good Evening!

Another beautiful day today!  The sunshine was gorgeous and the temps were a little higher today!  The sunshine just seems to put more smiles on people's faces.  Don't you think?

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Proverbs 12:18-19 ~ Your mouth can be a deadly weapon if you choose words that kill others.  It can also be a source of life if you choose loving words.

These verses are pretty self explanatory.  Use or choose the wrong words and you can hurt people, friends and co-workers.  Do you remember the old saying: "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me!"  That is so wrong.  A good example is children!  Sometimes they can be so very mean with what they say.  Whether it is on the playground or in the lunch room, many times vulgar and wrong words are uttered!  They hurt!  Many times the receiving one doesn't say anything and holds it deep inside and that is very hurtful.
Look at the second part of these verses:  "but the tongue of the wise brings healing.  Truthful lips endure forever."  Proverbs 12: 18b - 19a

Which do you strive for?  I choose the harder way and learn to be patient before I speak and think it through as much as I possibly can.

Have a great evening everyone!
Talk to you tomorrow!
