Reflective Thinking

Today’s proverb doesn’t play around. Death and life are in the power of the words we speak. God is reminding us how important it is to be disciplined about what we say.

It messed me up for years. Thankfully, I’m fully healed from that. I now believe the truth about who I am and who’s I am.

Action Idea

Here are some good words to speak to ourselves: I choose to respect the power of the tongue and I choose to be diligent and disciplined using that power. Yes! Once again, I choose to respect the power of the tongue and I choose to be diligent and disciplined using that power.
