Word therapy
The tongue is perhaps the most nasty killer of all. It can kill spirit, ambition, hope, love, and dash any dream. Research tells us that water molecules cringe and shrink when angry words are shouted at them. With affirming words, they expand, dance, and wiggle. And our bodies are mostly water. Think of the impact on that one hurting person you know if they were to hear words like, ‘you’re stronger than you think,’ ‘You’ll get through this and be one amazing person of character. I just know it!’
‘Your smile lights up any room. I loved seeing your patience in that situation.’ This is more than happy molecules, its word therapy, its life giving. And its Christ-like. He continually speaks good words. Let’s commit to word therapy with one person today. Jesus will be smiling.
