"If you are familiar with the Bible, you have probably come across Proverbs 18:21. I love the way it is stated in the Message translation: “Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose” (Proverbs 18:21, MSG)

You choose.” Wow! That was an epiphany for me. So, you mean I get to choose between words that can kill or give life? I believe we can agree that fruit is healthy, tastes good, and is more beneficial to the human body and a much better choice for consumption than poison.

As a result of this biblical truth, I became very intentional about words. They had to be life giving, positive, blessings, grace filled, good words before I spoke them, or received them especially."
