I had to share something I read this morning that touched my heart and comes from Isaiah 58...
When we use words to encourage, bless, fill
—we are feeding the poor in spirit.
When we give hope, present truth, covered with love
—we are clothing the naked.
When we offer grace, tear down walls, replace lies with truth
—we are setting the oppressed free.
When we use words to encourage, bless, fill
—we are feeding the poor in spirit.
When we give hope, present truth, covered with love
—we are clothing the naked.
When we offer grace, tear down walls, replace lies with truth
—we are setting the oppressed free.
Offer these kinds of words, wherever you are, to your friends, your family, the stranger you meet on the street, on your blog, and in your emails.
Can words really change the world?
(A dear blog-friend of mine has a very broken heart. She has lost her Father and two Grandpa's within months of each other... Can you visit her blog today and give her words of encouragement, love, kindness, and prayers? Thanks friends.)

of course can words change the world. it can change your feeling and make you the saddest person in the world or make you laugh so hard you can't breathe when you do a typo. and then.. i feel really sad about those who are deaf. The seriously miss one of the greatest gifts the God gave us!
Gives me chills. Words may not be able to change the world but they can spark the hearts that will act and change the world. God was the perfect example of living what he spoke!
Thank you so much for sharing!
