📖 Verse of the Day

Reflection

We sometimes say "they're just words" as if they're weightless, harmless things. But think about words that have shaped your own story: that encouragement that kept you going, that criticism that still stings, that "I love you" that changed everything. Our words carry weight—to build up or tear down, to bring life or death.

This isn't just about speaking positively. It's about understanding that every word we speak plants something in someone's heart—including our own. When we speak hope into despair, peace into chaos, love into loneliness, we're not just making noise. We're creating spaces where God's grace can grow.

Think of Jesus—how He spoke life into death, worth into shame, hope into despair. Our words might not raise the dead, but they can revive a broken spirit, restore a shattered confidence, rekindle a fading faith. Every conversation is an opportunity to be His voice in someone's story.

Today, choose words that bring life. Someone in your world might need them more than you know.

Ask Yourself

• When have you seen careless words cause damage?

• How can you show God’s compassion through what you say?

🙏 Prayer of the Day

Dear Heavenly Father,

I confess that my words often fall short. Sometimes they wound instead of heal, discourage instead of uplift. Forgive me. You’ve shown me that my tongue holds the power of life and death, and today I lay that power at Your feet.

Fill me with Your Spirit, Lord. Transform my speech. Make my words a reflection of Your heart—full of grace, seasoned with truth, overflowing with love. Help me to speak life into a world that desperately needs it. Help me to be more like You.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
