"The words 'I am...' are potent words; be
careful what you hitch them to. The thing
you're claiming has a way of reaching back and
claiming you". (A. L. Kitselman)
The Words that come out
of your mouth are very important because they
affect your health, your emotional well being
and have a direct bearing on what you become
in life. The Scriptures declare in Proverbs
18:21 (NLT), "Those who love to talk will
experience the consequences, for the tongue
can kill or nourish life.” Feed yourself a
healthy diet of good wholesome words because
what you put into your life is what you get
out of your life. "The difference between the
right word and the almost right word is the
difference between lightning and the lightning
bug". (Mark Twain) 1 Peter 3:10-11 says, “If
you want a happy life and good days, keep your
tongue from speaking evil, and keep your lips
from telling lies.” Spiritual discipline
begins in the mouth. As we practice yielding
our lives to the influence of the Holy Spirit
we will find the ability to control our
tongues. Good words nurture life and
health according to God's word. Proverbs
4:20-22 says (NKJV), “My son give attention to
my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do
not let them depart from your eyes; keep them
in the midst of your heart; for they are life
to those that find them, and health to all
their flesh.” Good words produce life—bad
words produce death.
Your mouth
and what you say has a tremendous impact on
your life and controls the direction you will
travel in life. Kind words can be short and
easy to speak but their echoes are truly
endless (Mother Teresa). Our words are like
seeds planted in our hearts that produce after
their own kind. Take control of your talk. The
tongue, like a rudder, guides us. James 3:3-4
says, “We put bits in horses' mouths that they
may obey us. Look also at ships … although
they are so large … they are turned by a very
small rudder wherever the pilot desires.” The
secret to a healthy and happy life is to
control the mouth by disciplining the heart
with the Word of God and prayer. Dale Carnegie
said, “You have it easily in your power to
increase the sum total of this world’s
happiness. How? By giving a few words of
sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely
or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget
tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the
recipient may cherish them for a lifetime.”
Watch your thoughts,
they become words.
Watch your words, they
become actions.
Watch your actions, they
become habits.
Watch your habits, they
become your character.
Watch your
character, it becomes your destiny.
