Each of you has a great power within you.
The power to lift someone up or tear them down with just the words that come out of your mouth.
The words you speak not only affect the person you are pointing them at but they have an effect on you as well.
Do you realize that?

Each time you speak kind and uplifting words to someone else that has a positive impact on your spirit.
Those spoken words and the reaction you receive from the person receiving them lift you up.
Your spirit is renewed, you feel good inside and a smile comes across your face.
On the other hand, each time you speak hateful and degrading words to someone that has a negative impact on your spirit.
Those spoken words and the reaction from the person receiving them brings your spirit down.
You may feel good at first thinking that “I told them” but inside your spirit is crying out.
The damage you feel you are inflicting on that other person you are also inflicting on yourself.
I have seen so much of this over the past 6 months on social media, in the news and in person.
And my fear is we don’t realize the damage being done.
Now is the time to change the story and reverse the damage by changing the words coming out of our mouths.
It’s easy to spit hate when everyone else is doing it, but it takes a brave soul to speak kindness in the midst of it all!
Today let’s all choose to be brave!
