Word Up

Our words have the power to lift people up or to push people down. Let’s make it our business to lift people up, to brighten their day, to make them feel better about themselves.

It’s easy to see other people’s faults, mistakes, and flaws.  It’s even easier to talk about them in a negative way.  I challenge you today to use your words to lift others up rather than speaking the obvious.  Let’s take the time and make the effort to find the good in a person.  Then let’s capitalize on that good.  Talk them up, encourage them, speak life and hope into their life.  They hear all the bad and negative all the time.  Encourage someone today, tomorrow and then the next day. You may be the only bright spot in their world today!
