Sweet words

Words matter

They help,

hurt,

heal,

guide,

or destroy

Words communicate

life

or 

death

I shared in my last post our change in life,

the end of one thing

and

trusting God for what comes next

From those words I was blessed to read dozens

of notes from people we have known, loved

and cared for

Their words were like honey

sweet words, encouraging words 

that told of how God had used us to help them

How glorious is our God

that we can be part of each others lives

hold another's hand

cry with another's tears

How sweet are the words that come

from God working in us

This God we serve is most amazing!

To him alone be all the glory

Thank you, Lord, for using

one like me

May our words to others be sweet, healing balm 
to refresh the weary and worn looking
for a bit of your kindness in their lives.
