| What we say affects more people than any other action we take. Our words carry tremendous weight and reveal the very nature of our hearts. Most of us have no idea how powerful our word are. Not only words we speak but in the tone we speak them. Each of us can reflect on unkind words that were spoken to us at some point in our lives. Words may not leave a physical mark, but they certainly leave emotional wounds. When we communicate unkind or hateful words, we run the risk of damaging so one for life.
Positive communication is beneficial to your life and lives of other people. Yôur words can refresh, empower, encourage, provide hope, build security, and share love. you words can also communicate " You are stupid" You are far" You are worthless" You are ugly" You are just like your father or mother spoken with harsh resentment, " You will never amount to anything" . These words have the ability to crush a persons feelings, self esteem, leave emotional scars, and devastate that person for life. We MUST THINK BEFORE speaking, and CHOOSE to use words saturated with wisdom. Walk away INSTEAD of speaking. God says in Proverbs 25:11-15 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver. Like a earring of gold and ornament of fine gold. Is a wise rebuked to an obedient ear. like a cold of snow in time of harvest Is a faithful messenger to those who send him, for he refreshes the soul of his masters. Whoever falsely boasts of giving is like clouds and wind without rain. By long forbearance the ruler is persuaded , and a gentle tongue breaks a bone.
So TODAY my friends, will you THINK before you SPEAK, I have been in a habit lately saying " Have BLESSED day, to everyone, checkers at store, on phone befor I hang up. Make my heart smile when I see the look on their face, first kinda of a shock, then smile and then a peaceful relaxing look. Try it. I think it says it all.
For it is WITH God all things are possible
Have a VERY BLESSED Tuesday ALL!
Father God, guide me today to do all things that will bring glory and honor to You Amen

Location: Texas | You don't knot yew how true this is. I can tell you my experience on this site when I decided to start doing ship seamen on my stud one person only 1 on this site posted how incorrect my stallion was. How she had seen him in person and she wouldn't bred a 3 legged mule to him. Truth was she had never seen him other than bad photos. He did not take good pictures. The people who did reply had nothing nice to say about me or my stud. When we finally did meet face to face she had to tell me who she was. Her photos on here were not of her but someone who looked like her. The horse trailer she said was hers belong to a client of her boyfriend. The house her boyfriend built her belonged to his landlord. The fancy horse tack and high breed horses she said she owned belong to other ppl. When we finally did come face to face she New then that I knew the truth about her and her lies. She went through here and deleted all the photos of things she said was hers.That was also the first time she saw my stud. She didn't know who he was his photos truely did him no good. When she found out he was Gallant Red Man she couldn't believe it. Yet the bamage here was bone. | |

Location: Arkansas | We never know how that one word--Good or bad---can affect someone. I told Chandler today he was acting just like his father and that wasn't a good thing. I should never have said it, not only because Chris died in March but simply because Chandler knows his father had several undesirable traits. And shame on me as a momma to have said that. Thank you LJ for helping me realize this was a big no no. | |

Location: Wisconsin | I was meant to read this, this morning. Walk away INSTEAD of speaking. I received a hurtful text last night, completely out of the blue, I honestly have no idea what this person was talking about. Instead of being a muture person and asking to speak face to face they sent a text with no explanation. Last night I walked away. Instead of trying to understand why I was being attacked, again, I walked away. I cried at the mean and uglyness behind the text, but I walked away. So much of me wanted to lash out, stand up for myself and take that person down a notch or two. That is what I would have attempeted a few years ago, but now, trying to be a better person, I am letting it go.
So thank you for this ladyjockey, it truley hit home. And thank you for all your posts, I dont post much, but I do jump on and read them. They help me. | |

We are all individuals, and yes we do carry traits of our parents. But again it is the best ones we need to remind our children and self of.
Words of kindness and encouragement will help each of grow in the kind of people God wants us to be.
Please read Gods message I have shared this morning.
Have a BLESSED Day, and hold your tongue from the painful words, speak word of kindness and encouragement. See the difference it makes a person feel, and your heart will smile, so will God's Amen | |

THANK YOU! And God BLESS, for taking the time to read.
Yes! So proud of you, let me tell you this if you had reacted, you would have brought yourself down to their level, that what they wanted your reaction, when we walk away and dont react or take action the other person has no where to go with it
walking away brings a smile to God's heart. | |
