Words are a beautiful thing, if used as you so beautifully illustrate every day to build others up. But one wrong word spoken in haste can destroy for a lifetime. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for always being such an encourager of others with your words. You are truly a wonderful vessel through which God speaks great words!

I am amaz...As usual...on target at the right time. I am amazed/distressed at the words that so upset and divide us. We are bombarded with it. Like? An insurance commercial showing a guy who accidentally hits the next car and politely asks forgiveness. The woman bounds out, screeching "I'll show you forgiveness" while repeatedly beating him ~ her husband "Hit him again, Rose." What in the world are people thinking? That type of stuff encourages people to vent...wow! Christians even screech at other Christians in disagreements...you name it. Hey, every single day oughta' be national encouragement day...positively encouraging. Keep talking to us, Terry! Please!

One cannot overestimate the importance of a well-timed encouraging word or a nicely placed praise phrase... you have spoken and written of such many times... I just thought this was the perfect place to re remind us of the positive power of Barnabas-speak!<BR/><BR/>God Bless!Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06498113118599691994noreply@blogger.com
