Words are very powerful. Just ask Jesus. In the Bible in John 1:1 Jesus is said to be the Word. That may have more than one meaning. One way to interpret this to ponder on the power that words might have. Tell me, what person would probably have a good self esteem. One that loves or one that hates. Two words that can have a great emotional impact on a person. How about the words happy and sad. One leads to joy, another to depression. What about the words love, kindness, rejoice, trust, hope, anxiety, perseverance, truth. These words are like chicken soup to the soul while the words like envy, boastful, dishonor, anger, evil, dishonesty, hatred are like poison to the soul. If one wonders why there is so much depression in our world, one needs to look no further than words. In the Bible the apostle says, “if I do not have love, I gain nothing.”
This is just the tip of the iceberg as the saying goes. There is much, much more that can be said on the subject. In closing I would just say choose you words carefully, be uplifting, be positive, be loving and I believe your life will be on the path to joy and happiness. And, of course, choose Jesus and salvation will be yours.
God Bless and remember always that Jesus is the word.
John 1:1 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
