”Pleasant words are a honeycomb; sweet to the soul and healing to the bones”

Theme: Power of Positivity

Story:
Arthur Gordon was cleaning out the family home when he came across
something he found to be of great value. It was a trunk full of family letters.
They chronicled the events of past generations in expressions of loyalty,
affection and delight that were rarely verbalized in his immediate family.

One writer said, “Have I told you lately what a wonderful person you are? Never
forget how much your friends and family love and admire you.”
Another letter said, “You don’t know how much your visit meant to us! When
you left, I felt as if the sun had stopped shining.”
Gordon said, “I don’t know what generation of my family put a check on the
release of such emotions. But I do know that it seriously interferes with one of
the deepest of all human needs—the desire for acceptance and approval.

Why, then, wanting to hear those words so much ourselves, do we deny them
so often to others?”

Thought for the day:
“Pleasant words… are sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.” That’s a lot
of power, and it doesn’t cost anything. Bless someone today with positive words
you are thinking about. Use your words to bring healing and sweetness.

Prayer:
Dear Lord,
Help me choose my words wisely.
Help me speak life into those around me today–to be a source of
encouragement rather than discouragement, to be a source of hope rather than
hurt and to be a source of love rather than pain.
All for your glory do we pray,
In Jesus’ name

Amen.
Let us now say The Lord’s Prayer.
Kindly stand at attention for the Pledge followed by the National Anthem.
