Our Words

I really enjoy leaders small group for a few specific reasons. First, its a time where interaction happens on many different scales [i.e. catching up with people you haven't spoken with all week, eating, sharing stories, etc.] And second, its a time to better prepare ourselves for what will happen and how we can best respond to the expected and unexpected. This eveing we talked about the power of our words [which always pans to be interesting]. With our mouths we bless and curse and with our tongue we bring life or death. Its never a suprise to hear sighs and murmurs of "oh, I can work on that, or I really need to change that." Which leads us to the point where we ask, "how can I improve the way I speak of others or listen. Its easy to be angered about a issue and lash back when your wronged, but its far greater to answer back with edification and life. I will now go to the drawing board.
