Kind Words Help
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless. (Mother Teresa)
It is true, of course, that harsh or unkind words can have a devastating and long-lasting effect on someone who is hurt by them. Thankfully, the opposite is true, too. Many people have been helped through life by kind words spoken many years before. Often, such helpful words of encouragement have motivated someone to live a joyful, fulfilling life many years later.
Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them. (Ephesians 4:19)
