This and That – Love!
Have you ever said something that you later regretted? I certainly have! Alas, we ofttimes do not pay enough attention to what we say and how we say it. Words are powerful, they have significance.
God, in His infinite wisdom, spoke the world into being with nothing more than just words. What we say to others can either soothe the troubled soul or enrage the angered heart. Our words–the good and the bad–endue, taking days, months, or perhaps years to evaporate from our memories–some words never leave us.
In life, we must remember that our words can help, heal, hurt, or harm. They are an indication of our true selves, the condition of our hearts, and perhaps our relationship with the Good Master.
