For
by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned. Matthew 12:35-37
The
election is over for 2016. Don’t gloat or despair. Your words and actions
reflect your heart—so be careful what you say and do. Treat others the way you
want to be treated…with respect for them and for our nation. No matter who is
President—Jesus is still the King of Kings. I saw a great post on Facebook
about doing something special for someone else like surprising them a cup of coffee
or a meal, offering to babysit a single parent’s kiddos, volunteering for a
cause or supporting a local business. It could be as simple as just smiling at
others…showing and sharing God’s joy. We all know the old adage that actions
speak louder than words. What are your words saying about you?

| Tasty and fruitful? |
If a
person speaks carelessly, they’ll be held accountable for it in the judgment.
The mouth speaks what is in the heart. How is your heart today? We need to be
careful what we say. Don’t even think careless words let alone speak them! We
may be “eating” our words. How about you, are your words lately tasty and
fruitful?
Lord, may the words of my mouth and the meditations of
my heart be acceptable to You and encouraging to others.
