ARROWS AND SWORDS
By: Lewis E. Thomas
We all know arrows and s(word)s are weapons designed to kill.
Did you know your "words" can also harm others and sometimes kill?
Have your words ever "cut" another to the depths of their heart?
Have you ever used words to "completely" cut someone apart?
The Holy Bible says cutting words should "never" leave a Christian's lips!
How many of your "ARROW LIKE" words have shot out with a "poison" tip?
Our words can inflict injuries on another's spirit that will last for life!
How many of your arrows are "still embedded" in the heart of your husband or wife?
Think about your arrows or words and the damage they can do!
Would you want someone firing those arrows or cutting words at you?
Which wounds last a life time?
I thought about that for a while.
There is no "Greater Wound" than the ones inflicted by your "own" child!
