I meant to post this earlier this week, but life has been crazy! Any prayers for me and my family would be greatly appreciated. We are going thrugh a big remodel.... But, enough about my life. Here is the post!!
Ephesians 4:29, NIV Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. (Italics added)
The words we choose to use say a lot about who we are and what we value. The words we say can build others up and encourage them. Or, we can cut them down and make them feel awful. What do people feel after talking to you? Do you honor God and others with your words?
Tori alerted me to the No Cussing Club (www.nocussing.com). Even though I don't have much of an issue with it, I am going to take the challenge to bring awareness to it. I encourage all of you to do the same. Honor God with all that you say.
I won't cuss, swear, use bad language, or tell dirty jokes. Clean language is a sign of intelligence and always demands respect. I will use my language to uplift, encourage and motivate. I will Leave People Better Than I Found Them!
Click here . . . I ACCEPT THE NO CUSSING CHALLENGE!
If you go for one week, you are an apprentice. One month, a journeyman. One year, a master. Will you take the challenge? I did.
