The right word at the right time is like a custom-made piece of jewelry (MSG)
I read on line a small list of the most powerful words in the English language and wanted to share them with you.
1. Alone - the bitterest word
2. Death - the most feared word
3. No - the coldest word
4. Friend - the warmest word
5. ? - the most powerful word?
For the author, Jesus was his most powerful word and he wondered what word other people might have. Mine is God.
Look at the words used in the Book of Proverbs and think about what they mean to you. And think how you can use those words.
Out of the above list, the two words that mean the most to me are - God and friend. Powerful and warm.
What words mean the most to you out of that list? The top three or the bottom two? Are there words used in other Scripture that have special meaning to you? Something you live by? Something you breathe in daily?
I do...Philippians 4:13 'Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am' (MSG)
Those words keep telling me that as long as I have Christ in me, I'm ok, I'm safe and he will provide me with what I need. I am so thankful that God has given me friends who love me and who know the right words and will use them at the right times.
