For those who know me, I have a hard enough time speaking English, let alone another language! 🙂 In my love for Jesus, however, I’m following Him by learning Hebrew.
In my study, I’ve found it interesting how many English words have snuck into the Hebrew vocabulary; such as: bank, park and plastic. Even less stellar words, such as @%#! words, made the cut as well.
I don’t say the latter as a good thing, either. Yet, it is an example of how powerful our words can be. Someone said those words. Others started using them. And presto, they’re now in the dictionary.
The words you use are powerful both in your life and in the lives of those around you. Ephesians 4:25 instructs us to “speak the truth with his neighbor.” Your words can end up in their brain, which can come out in their life choices. Choose your words carefully. They do influence people. Filter your words through Jesus to draw yourself and others closer to Him.
