Kind of Words

Proverbs 15:1-4 

1 A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

2 The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouth of the fool gushes folly.

3 The eyes of the LORD are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good.

4 The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life, but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit.

Colossians 4:6 

Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.

Luke 6:35 

But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

Romans 14:1 

Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters.

Thoughts on Today's Verse....

Our life in Christ is such a blessing! We welcome new Christians into our fellowship to share that blessing. We don't bring them in to scrutinize their past failures or the current struggles, but to bring them into the love of God's famiily. God has welcomed us graciously and compassionately. Let's do the same with new Christians.

Evangelism 

"God will not let me get the blessing without asking. Today I am setting my face to fast and pray for enlightenment and refreshing. Until I can get up to the measure of at least two hours in pure prayer every day, I shall not be contented. Meditation and reading besides." - Andrew Bonar

"Prayer does not enable us to do a greater work for God. Prayer is a greater work for God." - Thomas Chalmers 

"Prayer is not learned in a classroom but in the closet."    - E. M. Bounds
