Verse of the Day: Proverbs 18:21
☀️ Good morning!
Let's greet today with open hearts, ready to use our words as tools for good. With each sunrise comes a fresh opportunity to speak blessings into our lives and the lives of others. May your day be filled with meaningful conversations and uplifting encounters. Have a truly blessed day!
Verse of the Day
“The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”
Today's scripture presents us with a vivid truth: our words are not mere breath and sound, but vessels of creative or destructive power. They can build bridges or erect walls, heal wounds or inflict them. This proverb encourages us to wield this power with a deep sense of responsibility, reminding us that with every word we speak, we plant seeds that will bear fruit.
As believers, we are called to be curators of life-giving words, to speak with love, to articulate hope, and to voice faith that can move mountains. Let us use our words to reflect God's grace, to encourage and uplift, to comfort and guide. For in doing so, we not only nourish the souls of others, but we also feast on the fruits of righteousness and love ourselves.
Ask Yourself:
How can I use my words today to bring life to those around me? In what ways can I speak kindness, encouragement, and peace into my interactions?
Prayer of the Day
Heavenly Father,
In the stillness of this new morning, I stand before You, recognizing the immense power You've placed in my words. I ask for the wisdom to wield this power with grace, the restraint to refrain from harm, and the vision to see the impact of every word I utter.
Grant me, O Lord, the discernment to speak life into dry places, to use my voice for healing where there is hurt, and for encouragement where there is despair. May my tongue be an instrument of Your peace, speaking truth wrapped in love, sowing seeds of Your goodness in every conversation.
As I move through this day, let my words be a reflection of Your heart—full of life, full of love, full of You. And should I falter, gently correct me, for it is my desire to eat the fruit of life-giving speech, sharing the bounty with those You place in my path.
In the precious and life-affirming name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

A Christian newsletter we highly recommend
A group of Christian millennials think they’ve fixed the news…
It’s called The Pour Over, and it has two goals:
Keep its readers informed about world events
Keep its readers focused on Christ
That means providing politically neutral coverage of events and pairing it with brief Biblical reminders.
The question is… are they hitting the mark? See what you think, subscribe in just one click.
