Fantastic Friday #246- Words

Words

6 Listen, for I have trustworthy things to say;
I open my lips to speak what is right.
7 My mouth speaks what is true,
for my lips detest wickedness.
8 All the words of my mouth are just;
none of them is crooked or perverse.
9 To the discerning all of them are right;
they are upright to those who have found knowledge.
10 Choose my instruction instead of silver,
knowledge rather than choice gold,
11 for wisdom is more precious than rubies,
and nothing you desire can compare with her. Proverbs 8:6-11


Do you ever struggle for Words to speak? Did you have a week where you questioned what to say to someone? Did you feel like if you said the wrong thing that you would step on someone's toes? Maybe it is time that the worry about what to say should be put behind you and you should focus more on what God is saying to you. A lot of times we think we need to say something to make something better, what we could say could make a difference with someone, or we need to say something to mend a broken relationship. There we go relying on our own words again. Maybe we should turn to God and allow Him to speak through us because the wisdom we have comes from His Word and not our own. Don't get yourself into that helpless situation where you feel like you can't speak, but let God lift you and speak for you. Maybe then we will realize that it is His Word that is more powerful and beautiful than our own words.

Have a great weekend.
