Your WORDS.

You know how people always say, watch what you say as the tongue is sharper than any sword? People don't say it just because it sounds nice or because it sounds smart, but because it is true. Fact is, what you say sometimes, HURTS LIKE MAD. And sometimes, without you realizing it killed someone inside. Even the bible says, "Reckless words pierce like a sword" -Proverbs 12:18

Emmanuel shared a powerful message last two weeks ago and it is still stuck in my head. I know pastors preached about it before but what Emmanuel shared was so real. He said, God gave us Christian(s) authority. Whatever we speak from our mouth has authority. If you curse someone, that curse will come upon that person. And also, be careful with jokes. Yeah, you might think, no biggie, its just a joke but lets not forget that God gave us authority... Just so you know, the definition of "curse" here is synonymous with "swearing."

Well, I'm sharing this because I realized how many people got hurt-just by words. And how many people don't realize that their words killed others. So instead of cursing or saying negative things, why don't we bless someone with the tongue God gave us? :) And isn't it stupid if we praise and worship God AND curse people at the same time? For the bible says, "With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so." -James 3:1-10
