12 words that can transform lives

I am sharing here what we have learned in the Bible Study last night. Chapter 3 of James in the Bible tells more about Taming the tongue. He said that our tongue can be the following: bit and rudder, fire and poison, fountain and tree. Our tongues have the power to direct, destroy and delight. Our tongues can be tamed when our heart is right with God. "Out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks. Matthew 12:34" When Jesus Christ is the Lord of the heart, then he is the Lord of the lips too. I hope you have the time to read Psalm 141:3-4, Proverbs 15:1, 12:22, 10:19

These are the 12 words that can bring delight and transform lives:
Please and Thank you When we use these words, we are treating others like people and not things. We show appreciation.
I’m sorry These words break down walls and build bridges to gaps
I love you When we say this, let us also mean what it says. These are powerful words.
I’m praying for you When we talk to God about people, we can easily talk to people about God.

“Give your tongue to God and your heart each day and ask Him to use you to become a blessing to others.”
