Choose Your Words Carefully
Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one. Colossians 4:6
How do we speak to one another?
Grace =charis -that which affords joy, pleasure, delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness: grace of speech.
We should always speak to one another from a place of grace.
Our speech, itself, should always be like salt, used wisely, enhancing the flavour, not taking away from it.
There is power in our words.
“Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Proverbs 18:21
We can speak life into the lives or others or we can speak death.
We must choose our words carefully.
