If You Think Something Good - Speak It
Proverbs 16:24 (NIV)
24 Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
Devotional: How many kind thoughts have you kept to yourself this week? How many times did you notice something admirable in another person and let the moment pass without saying a word? Encouragement that stays locked in your mind helps no one. The people around you are walking through battles you cannot fully see. A word spoken at the right moment -- a word that you had been holding back -- can be the very thing that shifts someone from despair to hope. Do not rob others of what God has placed in your heart for them. If you think something good, speak it. You may never know the full weight of what your words mean to someone else.
Personal Reflection: Think of someone in your life who has spoken encouraging words over you at a critical moment. How did those words affect the direction of your life?
Practical Application: Write a note, send a message, or make a phone call today to someone you have been meaning to encourage. Do not wait for a better moment. This is the moment.
