Words are very, very powerful. The Bible states that they have "life and death" in them. The more conscious we become of the words we speak, the more we will deepen our relationship to the words.
For me personally I want to only speak words that agree with the teaching of Jesus. From this, I am able to speak from a place of actually feeling and knowing what I am saying.
Words are not abstract, disconnected entities used only to convey meaning; they are powerful transmitters of feeling and have actions or results. For the next few days, try this - practice noticing how the words you say and hear, affect your body and your emotional state.
Notice how the different communication styles of the people in your life make you feel. Also, watch closely to see how your own words come out and what affect they have on the people around you.
Again, words have "life and death."
Much love,
Joseph
