Pleasant Words

A wise heart instructs its mouth and increases learning with its speech. Pleasant words are a honeycomb: sweet to the taste and health to the body.
Proverbs 16:23‭-‬24 HCSB

A good response comes from the Spirit of God. A wise person allows the Spirit to rule the answers of the tongue. The tongue can bring life or death. When it brings life and the words are honeycomb to the hearers.

In every conflict there is opportunity to bring life or death. Our flesh is selfish and wants to lash out with barbs on our tongue. We must resist this and wait for God. Where is His response?

Health is mine as I bring life to others. I can be a vessel of blessing or a vessel of cursing. One brings life, one destroys and partners with the devil the other is a channel for the Spirit of God. Amen!
