Have you ever thought about the importance of the words you speak? Have you considered the power of words to injure, influence and direct? My mother often told me to make my words sweet because I might have to eat them. At the time, I had no idea she was referring to an actual scripture, however; that is exactly what Proverbs 18:21 is saying. We daily eat the fruit of our words. If we sow words of kindness, we will reap kindness. If we sow harsh words, we will reap the bitter fruit of those words also. Jesus said that men will be held accountable for every careless word spoken on the day of judgment, for by our words we will be acquitted or condemned (Matthew 12:36-37). The Bible is filled with instruction for wise conversation. This little book will help you understand the power of speech and the importance of choosing your words wisely.
