I love writing and speaking. I love words, they can weave beautiful imagery, make someone feel good and more. I found some great quotes on words this morning:

Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. –Proverbs 16:24

A fool’s mouth is his destruction and his lips are the snare of his soul. –Proverbs 18:7

Death and life are in the power of the tongue. –Proverbs 18:21

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. –Eph. 4:29

Out of the mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be, -James 3:10

Feelings precipitate thoughts. Thoughts precipitate words.

If we understood……..if we were fully and genuinely aware of the far reaching consequences the words we use have on and in our lives, as well as the lives of those we come in contact with, we would assuredly, beyond question, want to be influential in affecting a reversal of this condition in our society today. K. Truman in Feelings Buried Alive Never Die

If we could make the lives of our loved ones, neighbors, co-workers and all we encounter a little happier by the words we choose to speak, how much better would our own lives be. Sue
