It's harder to make amends with an offended friend than to capture a
fortified city. Arguments separate friends like a gate locked with
iron bars. Words satisfy the soul as food satisfies the stomach; the
right words on a person's lips bring satisfaction. Those who love to
talk will experience the consequences, for the tongue can kill or
nourish life. (Prov 18:19-21 NLT)
Prayer: LORD, help me choose my words carefully today as I interact
with others. I want to sow joy and encouragement into their lives.
Strengthen me and help me go back and reconcile and restore any
damage I have caused to others in the past by my words. Words can
hurt and cause emotional and spiritual damage, or words can heal and
bring life. I will choose healing and life today. Thank You for Your
words of life to me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
