Words are all we have

Matthew 12:36 "But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment."

Sometimes words are all we have when there's nothing else we can do. You are what you say and how you say it. Actions do speak louder than words, but people often tend to say things without really thinking. So think before you speak because:

-Words build up or tear down.

-Words inspire or insult.

-Words spoken with encouragement have made friends out of strangers.

-Words whispered with kindness may ease a broken heart's pain.

-Words spoken in anger are often forgiven, but rarely forgotten.

When someone says, "Just what I needed to hear!", it means God has spoken through you. Your testimony may change some person's life for eternity.

Please remember these words: 


-Decisions are based on words.

-Destinies are determined by words.

-Dynasties are built by words.

-Destruction can be found in words.

Words are all we have when there's nothing else to do. Speak blessing or cursing-it is up to you!
