2.12.13

Today I am grateful for what people have said to me....  Words can be so amazing!!! When we stop and think about what people said to us today... What do you remember? When having a conversation with someone there was point in which I felt like a child and then apparently acted like it.. lol  "Why are you hiding... I can see you!" ...just really grateful I have mostly outgrown the fright and FLIGHT defense mechanism.. I was pretty close. lol In all seriousness... words can really encourage people to do things they are not used to doing and help them to continue to step outside the box.... "Love the devotion, good job pushing through the challenge" or "Thank you for stepping out in faith once again, taking on the challenge.." And in some cases... someone can say something that just plain makes you feel special... and that is just a wonderful feeling... "When you least expect it that's when it happens and it makes you smile..."  Months ago, Pastor Mary spoke in Sermon about listening twice as hard as we speak and when we do, think before you do... what would people say you said to them today?
Tomorrow as Lent begins.. what will you do... give something up or make a promise to do something? perhaps something with your words is in order???
When you awaken to a wonderful Wednesday, words will work wonders, don't you think?
