Speaking Life
What do your words produce in the people around you? How do your words impact the world? Do your words impact the world for life, or do your words produce death in the world?
Wisdom tells us our words matter. Our words carry the weight of life and death.
The wisdom of the Proverbs tells us, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.” (Proverbs 18:21, ESV).
We can speak life into a dead world. Our words impact the world and the people in it.
May we love God’s word of life and speak God’s word of life, and may we love and delight in eating it’s fruits.
A Prayer for the Fourth Sunday of Easter: Good Shepherd: “O God, whose Son Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd of your people: Grant that, when we hear his voice, we may know him who calls us each by name, and follow where he leads; who, with you and the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
