23. This story teaches two lessons:
There is the power of life & death in the tongue. An
encouraging word to someone who is down, can lift them up
and help them make it through the day.
A destructive word to someone who is down can be what it
takes to kill them.
24. Be careful of what you say. Speak life to those who cross your
path.
The power of words ... it is sometimes hard to understand.
An encouraging word can go such a long way.
Anyone can speak words that tend to rob another of the spirit
to continue in difficult times. Special is the individual who will
take the time to encourage another.
