I had to write this blog because the Lord has really been
pressing this upon me. Do you realize that what we say can bring poison into
our lives....COMPLAINING releases poisons... We all complain from time to time
but I know people that COMPLAIN about everything and all the time. I have to
distance myself from them because their poisons attack me too! Complaining not
based on circumstances, it's based on the attitude of your heart. If you keep
the right attitude during your times of distress, then God honors us.
Let NO foul or polluting language come out of
your mouth (Ephesians 4:29)
It's amazing how many changes you see when you accept the
Lord as your savior, and truly walk with Him in all that you do. I know for
me, It's really hard to be around people because they curse too much, they
complain too much, they have a wicked tongue and it all makes me quite
uncomfortable. We really need to remember that our words can purify or
pollute. What comes out of your mouth? Would you act the way you do if
Jesus was standing in front you? Would you curse if you were talking to Him?
We need to stay Godly and honorable and remember......The power of a word.
When I was a young little girl (i'm still
little, but not young..lol) I used to always say Sticks and Stones may break my
bones but words will never hurt me! That is so untrue...Words hurt! They don't
just hurt US they hurt our Lord as well. We need to focus on Thanking Him,
praising Him, and worshiping Him, and let go of all these nasty words,
complaints and negativity..He'll bless us soooo much. He LOVES us!
The Lord will keep you in perfect peace if you
keep your mind stayed on Him. (Isaiah 26:3)
Praise , Seek, Worship, Trust and Thank our
God!
Love in Christ,
