Verbal expectations.........

Good afternoon,

“A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly, but the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness.” Proverbs 15:1

It’s all about thinking before you speak. There have been times that I have popped off at the mouth before thinking it through. I have had to endure the consequences that come with that. I have been really working on that. I want to use my words to build and not to destroy. That is why I am so thankful that GOD works on us a piece at a time. HE never gives us more than we can handle. It may seem like it’s a lot but that ‘s due to the fact that we have doubt…GOD doesn’t. There will be people that are not allowing change to take place in their lives and will say things that will hurt you. You have a choice to ignore them or let them have control over your feelings. I know most of us will be quick to tell someone, “You can’t tell me what to do” but allow them to have control over their feelings…… We have to learn to ignore the negative. I’m sure there is someone in our lives that encourages or speak positive words to us. We should focus more on those blessings. People that destroy with their mouths are just lost souls that haven’t figured out how to find their own happy. They are not able to heal with their words because they are still looking for their own healing. So, until they have figured out we should NEVER meditate on their words. Take every kind word spoken to you as a form of glue. Let positive words heal and restore you to where you need to be. If you believe that things will get better let the positive spark more life into those thoughts until you are full. We can get through anything and with positive reinforcement; it makes the goal more tangible. If we choose the songs we listen to then we can choose the people we listen to in our lives. Do not invest into people that are lost. You will find that you end up lost also. You already know what to do. I just think that sometimes we wait for someone to co-sign on what we are thinking. What we have to do is instead of waiting speak over our own lives. The more positive you send out the more you get back. It’s like a magnet. When negativity comes your way, block it like Wonder Woman does with her bracelets and then smile knowing that you are stronger than hater.

Let’s focus on the positive and continue to build greatness!!!!!!!

AND remember words hurt when you believe them……

MAKE IT GREAT!
