“Words Breathing a Way of Life”

James 3:7-10 “All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man, but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers this should not be.

Abba Father good morning – The language of the ways of this world once thought to be disgusting has now become a normal way of communicating. Becoming ever so gradually more and more tolerant to our everyday ways of life. Once in private / Now in public. It is unhealthy, unpleasing, and an ungodly way of communication that is not only disgusting but is destroying relationships throughout this world. Take some time this day. Reflect on how powerful words can be. How meanings changes with tones. How we twist words together. How intimidating they can feel. As we go about our day spontaneously communicating with real people living real life. Let us remember. Words are powerful. Are we lifting others up and instilling hope? Or are we being demanding, demoralizing, and instilling hopelessness? Are the words we speak. The ones that come from deep within our heart, our mind, our soul. Godly encouraging or ungodly demoralizing. Are they breathing positivity or negativity? Are they bitterness or sweetness? The living bible teaches about the power of words. Effects they have. Message they instill. Remember. Words have a way of being repeated and lingering for years upon years in the hearts, minds, souls that listened or heard intentionally or unintentionally. Are we communicating words of comfort? Words lifting others up. Words instilling hope. Words reflecting teachings in the living bible. What is our intent? Are we speaking from outside our brewing anger or within love? Are we building up or causing turmoil, despair, feelings of worthlessness? Are we creating or destroying relationships within families, friendships, and lives of complete strangers encountered throughout our life? Are the words that flow freely from deep within our inner-core of life breathing all praise, all honor, all glory to our living God? This amazing living God unconditionally breathing agape love into this whole world. All of life personally, unconditionally, intimately. This agape love is so powerful. So undemanding. It gives us the freedom to choose between the ways of this world and the ways of our living God. Agape love allowing freedom to let go within rejection(s) and freedom to embrace everyday life willingly. Everyone at one time has been rejected and embraced willingly by the life of another. Everyone has felt the pain of rejection and joy of acceptance. The living bible teaches about living a life that will bring all praise, all honor, all glory to our living God, our Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit. Reading, holding, embracing this living bible. This book of life will transform our life, our family, our friendships, and create new relationships with compete strangers. We will learn to be more understanding, more tolerant, more patient. We will embrace a way of life of being thankful, grateful, and cherishing all life. A life willingly breathing all the fruits of the Spirit; love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control within our living God, our Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit. Our life will be overshadowed every moment with everlasting hope, unconditional love, compassionate forgiveness within the anointed promise of eternal life in heaven. This life of cleansing, redeeming, restorational undeserved grace breathes eternal life into life’s brokenness with anointed sustainable life from everlasting life in heaven. A precious gift we cannot earn, cannot purchase, cannot create, and the ways of this world cannot provide. This is a life of living faith. A life we live-out willingly breathing believing, accepting, trusting, following God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. We have a choice, a decision, a way of life to choose. This very moment has life-changing purpose within sustaining worth within thriving passion. Never forget. We always have the freedom to reject or embrace the ways of this world or the ways of our living God. With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse others, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing, this should not be. Remember. Words communicated openly will reflect what lives deep within our heart, our mind, our soul. Our very inner-core of life. What is our life breathing upon this world of brokenness? Lives of real people living real life. Sweetness or bitterness? Love or hatred. Godliness or ungodliness.

Father – Thank you for this new day to open my heart, my mind, my soul with life-changing gifts of undeserved grace breathing everlasting life in heaven. Anointed blessings of affirmation, faithfulness, promises to never leave me, never forsake me, never abandon me. May my words, actions, behavior, attitude be Godly, uplifting, encouraging, and worthy breathing all praise, all honor, all glory to you Abba Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit.
