Our days are filled with our words. The words we use shape our relationships with others and the words we use give evidence to our beliefs. Our words are a gift from the Lord and we can use them to build up others. We build up with positive encouragement and sharing the truth about the Love of Jesus. The Scripture teaches that when we use our words to build others up, we are giving them grace.
As you encounter others today, pay attention to your words. Give grace and speak hope and encouragement to them. Use the gift of your words to nudge others toward the love of God and remind them that He is good and He has promised them life through Jesus Christ.
