Word Spoken!!?? 12/4/22
Proverbs 15:23 (KJV)
23 A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!
Proverbs 25:11 (KJV)
11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
Proverbs 29:11 (KJV)
11 A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.
Mama “taught” me MANY years ago the OLD adage:
“STICKS AND STONES MAY BREAK MY BONES
BUT WORDS WILL NEVER HURT ME!!”
I wanta SCREAM at the top of my lungs..............................
MAMA!!! THAT IS NOT TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WORDS DO HURT ME (AND YOU)!!!
Please carefully/PRAYERFULLY read and even MEMORIZE the above Scriptures.
More importantly, LIVE the above Scriptures.
James 1:26 (KJV)
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
James 3:6 (KJV)
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
James 3:8 (KJV)
8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
I had ANOTHER rough night with little Amanda last night and I must confess the following is TRUE:
“PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE POSSESS IT IF YOU CAN...................
SELDOM FOUND IN WOMEN NEVER FOUND IN MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!”
AMEN AND AMEN-And all the ladies said AMEN!
How often in THIS life do we TRULY understand, as my good friend Matthew K said to me onetime,
“Pastor Doug, a blind man CANNOT see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
SELAH-THINK ABOUT THAT!!!
A BLIND MAN CANNOT SEE............................
CANNOT see your point of view just as WE cannot “see” what others are going through.
REMEMBER:
MAJOR ILLNESS IS WHEN YOU ARE HURTING
MINOR ILLNESS IS WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS SUFFERING!!!!!!!!!!!
Oftentimes, people AND loved ones CANNOT do any better AND
OUR hurtful criticism and WORDS of “encouragement” do NOT help!!!!
WORDS DO AND CAN HURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today, may WE enact the words of that old prophet Otis Redding and
“TRY A LITTLE TENDERNESS!!!”
“YOUNG GIRLS THEY DO GET WEARY!!!”
1 Peter 3:8 (KJV)
8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
James 5:16 (KJV)
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
Beloved, MANY people are HURTING today and they
CANNOT do any better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Life has handed them a lemon and they CANNOT make lemonade!!!!
As my father-in-law remarked on his death bed:
“I WOULD STAY LONGER......................
IF I COULD!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????”
THEY/WE would do better if we could......................
TODAY, let's at least TRY to do better!!!
AMEN AND AMEN!!
