AN EXTRA WEEK – (Day 5 of 6)
Our three concepts for this week.
WEIGH YOUR WORDS – because words have power.
LET’S ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING – because love does.
SAY/DO NOTHING – because sometimes nothing is a better choice.
I’ve been doing more thinking about words.
Being a bottom-liner, I am more apt to think through my words, but it also means I’m susceptible to not speaking up when I need to.
It’s helpful for me to think of words as gifts. I want to give good gifts to those around me. What kind of word gift could I give them? It helps me speak up more often.
I think it’s important to understand your natural bent and play into its strength and work to improve your weaknesses.
How are y’all doing with your word practice?
Paul and I attend a small group each week (something I recommend). We’re just starting a book study with Emotionally Healthy Spirituality (something else I recommend).
It’s an awkward title, but an amazing book. If you want to grow up more in the Lord, this may be the book for you!
