power of words

The power of words

They can hold you hostage -

to bitterness
to anger
to sorrow
to worry
to sadness
to pain
to discouragement
to fear
to tears

OR

They can lift you up -

to love
to be encouraged
to smile
to be happy
to be content
to feel secure
to trust
to be at peace

Words are powerful. 

We really need to think twice before we talk.

Sometimes the best gift we can give is truly the gift of silence.
