Today is Tuesday, May 18th, 2004; Karen's Korner #297

Proverbs 11:9 - "Evil words destroy. Godly skill rebuilds."

 

Bible Commentary - "Words can be used either as weapons or tools; hurting relationships or building them up. Sadly, it is often easier to destroy than to build, and most people have experienced more destructive words than words which build up. Every person you meet today is either a demolition site or a construction opportunity. Your words will make a difference. Will they be weapons for destruction or tools for construction?"

 

 

Dear Lord, help me to check what I say to people with whom I come in contact today. Help me, too, think of each person I meet as a potential construction site. Not only guard what I say, guard what I think. Because of the worlds in which most of us live, we have been wounded by too many destructive words. I want to say and think positive things about everyone..........just for today! Bless each person who receives Karen's Korner. May they know just how wonderful they  are. Not because I say so, but because You say so. Thanks for all the positive things You say about each one of us in the Bible. You believe in each one of us, more than we believe in ourselves.  Amen.
