I Have Questions: WordsExemple

Words are powerful. Our experiences tell us this. Words can build people up or tear people down. This verse from Matthew is another way of saying how powerful words can be. They show people what we’re really like—what’s really on the inside of us. The words we use are like a window into what is going on beneath the surface. So what are our words telling people about who we really are?  

Think back on some of the conversations you have had lately. Imagine you were listening in on yourself. Based on your words alone, what kind of person would you think you are? Write down any observations you have, and spend time talking to God about your words.
