Beautiful words of life.


The song says "Beautiful words, wonderful words, wonderful words of life." There are many words and phrases which are used over and over in the word of God. One word, just the right word, can speak volumes. Proverbs 25: says "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver."(KJV) It says a "word" not words. Let us try to be that one who speaks a word to the weary soul, or to the bereaved one, or to that one in need of a word of encouragement instead of tearing down with words of criticism.
Two of my favorite words in the Word of God are
lovingkindness and tender mercies. In all but one instance where these words are found they speak of our Lord. Many times they are used together . Doesn't this give us a beautiful picture of a forgiving, loving, kind Father.
