~Happy Talk~

Are you a happy talker? Check out these verses to sort of check up from the neck up. Jot down or copy and paste the ones you might need to focus on. What if these verses described the way we talk day in and day out? How much happier would we be? How much happier would those around us be? 

Life Giving Talk ~

Proverbs 18:21 “death and life are in the power of the tongue..”

Grace Talk ~

Ephesians 4:29 “let no corrupt talk come out of your mouths, but only what is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear it”. 

Heart Talk ~

Matthew 15:18 “but what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person”.

Sweet Talk ~

Proverbs 16:24 “Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body. 

Soft Talk ~

Proverbs 15:1 “a soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger”.

Controlled Talk ~

Proverbs 13:3 “whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin”. 

Appropriate Talk ~

Proverbs 25:11”a word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver”

 

Are our words fitly spoken? Do we give soft answers? Are our words sweet to the soul, from the heart, and life giving? 

 

Or are our words filled with anger, or do they bring death to relationships? Are our words corrupt or defile people? Do they bring our lives to ruin?  

 

Words created the entire universe. Words are so powerful. They never go away. They remain. We can’t retract them. They are out there accomplishing what we sent them to do. What are our words accomplishing? Are we spreading the happy with our words? Let’s do! What do ya say? Let’s let it be said of us that our talk is happy talk!! 

 

Happy Monday 😊
