The power of your words

But I tell you that everyone will have to account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. - Matthew 12:36 (NIV)

The words you use have an impact on how you think, live and interact with others. Jesus often instructed his disciples to reflect not only on their words but on their motives. Use your words wisely - they have great power - to spread darkness or light.

Today's prayer:
Heavenly Father, empty words lead to an empty life. May my words be sincere and kind, comforting and encouraging, loving and understanding.
