i think allowing the Lord to control our words and finding our voice to tell of the great works He has done in our hearts has incredible power to bring Him so much glory. i think it is also very dangerous to the Enemy. i pray that i will be able to live out:

“may the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, o Lord, my rock and my redeemer” -psalm 19:14

and i hope that the Lord will use my story to bring Himself a ridiculous amount of glory and hopefully further His Kingdom. . .

This was a message from Jesus, to me, through you, “But be careful what you say in outburst to your kids, husband, the sales girl at the store. Words can alter the course of a life.” My 3 year old daughter and I are having a hard time communicating, my husband and I have something festering that needs to be discussed. I am going in to these discussions with a change of heart. – Thanks!

Thank you for this lovely reminder. Words are indeed powerful — either as weapons or to let people fly. I hope my words fall in the latter.

On more than one occasion your words have brought hope, healing and courage to this heart. Yours may not look like those of your friends, but the expression of your gift is touching and impacting lives in ways you may never know. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. When you are feeling discouraged and ill-equipped just know that for at least one of your readers (and I suspect many of us) your words are like a balm to my soul. Love you friend!

You, Sarah, have said so many good words to me. Thank you for this post.

I have a hard time with my temper. I most often let guilt nearly choke me to death on account of my words.

I’ve found that the nearer I recognize God to be, the fewer words I say.

It’s not so much the words for me as the tone. Constant struggle. Which is ok. It means I (should) stop & think about the tone before I let it loose. I’m not always successful, but the % of time I am is better than what it used to be…which was 0.
