WORDS, WORDS, WORDS (Day 2 of 6)
(Need to start at the beginning? Day 1)
Do you pay attention to the words you speak?
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Psalm 19:14 ESV
I do for the most part. However, I am less thoughtful when I’m tired, busy, or preoccupied.
I also tend to let my guard down with people I am close to. I have been “less edited” with them. I came to realize, at one point, that my loved ones deserved my best behavior, so that is changing. Yes, I want to speak the whole truth with them, but it still needs to be voiced kindly.
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver. Proverbs 25:11 ESV
Take the day to talk to God about your words. How are you doing on your journey to speak apples of gold in a setting of silver? Where do you struggle?
Tilly has discovered our little loft.
We opened up a loft area as a place to house the electrical for a couple of banks of solar panels. Then realized we could box all that in and make the loft a nice place for the grandkids to play and have sleepovers. Hmmm. Will Tilly share?
