I’m one who tends to save words. Having prayer journals dating back all the way to 1982 helps me to look back over the years and see how God has moved. And move He does. Over and over again, the Lord provides, orchestrates, and leads.
Those prayers and words uttered to the Lord, help to shape the way I see the world.
Do you realize how important words are in shaping the way you see the world?
Do you realize how your words can elevate and uplift?
Your words can encourage or they can crush.
They can uplift or they can discourage.
Words shape the way people perceive the world.
Listen for a moment to the word of the Lord:
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God…and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We have seen His glory, glory of the One and Only full of grace and truth (John 1: 1, 14)
God’s definitive word of love for this world is Jesus. This living Word is full of grace and truth.
Words shape reality. How we interact with one another shapes the world of those around us. God’s definitive word to us, Christ Jesus, says we are loved, that God has grace, and He pursues us with passion.
This Thanksgiving, let your words overflow with joy and hope. God is good all the time. Build up your children. Build up your spouse. Encourage your co-workers. Put a smile on to your face to simply brighten the day of those around you.
This Sunday we’ll study 1 Kings 17:7-24 together and see the overflowing and provisional nature of our good God as He cares for one of His prophets and a widow. It’s a life lesson in extreme faith. Looking forward to worshiping with you Sunday. – Scott
