The Words I Say

As I had my quiet time this morning, the Lord placed Ephesians 4:29 on my heart. It says . . .

"You must let no unwholesome word come out of your mouth, but only what is beneficial for the building up of the one in need, that it may give grace to those who hear." -- Ephesians 4:29 (NET)

I was reminded that it is not only a good idea to be careful about the words that I allow to come out of my mouth, but it is actually a command. I stand broken, because too often the things that I say are hurtful or judgmental!

My commitment is to allow my speech to be full of grace with the intent of building others up!
