“By the word of the Lord were the heavens
made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.”
Psalms 33:6
King James Version
We have seen beautiful homes and tall business buildings and been
impressed. When I was reading this verse this morning, I realized
that God did not use His Hands to construct the world, He used
the words of His mouth.
If we would ever fully grasp the impact of the
cruel and critical words that we say to one another and the crippling
devastation they bring to someone’s heart, I don’t
think we would say them. One day, you and I are going to stand
before God and give an account of every word that we have said
and we will be judged according to what we have done to people.
We can tell someone that we are sorry and really mean it in our
heart and they can forgive us, but the scars of those words will
never fade away. I challenge all of us to ask Jesus to help us
to be kind and loving to one another. Remember that when we are
loving and compassionate to one another, it makes the Heart of
Jesus happy. |
