Devotional: Our Words Can Hurt!

Read: James 3:1-12 (NKJV)

What we say to others can really hurt their feelings. We need to be very careful with what we say to others. Have you ever been called names? How did that make you feel? Have you ever called anyone names? How do you think that would make them feel? It makes God very sad when we say hurtful things to other people. He loves all people the same. Even if we don't like someone, God does. He loves that person just as much as He loves us. If we try to remember that, we may not want to say something mean to them. Remember that God loves you, and cares about how you feel.

A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger. - Proverbs 15:1 (NKJV)

Lord, help me never say
Words that hurt another
Help me always speak with words
That will uplift and encourage.
