Proverbs 16:24 (NKJV) 24 Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Our mouths speak many, many words on a daily basis. What comes out of them is driven by what’s in our hearts. And what’s in our hearts is based on where we’re at in our walk with God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Obviously, not a single one of us is perfect, even if we wish that we were. We will have good days and bad days, good hours and bad hours, and even good moments and bad moments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But as a whole, it’s important that we allow God to mold us and shape us so that when we speak, the words that leave our mouths are pleasing to Him. If they’re pleasing to Him, they will be the best words that could be spoken.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This doesn’t mean that we should never say things that might offend someone. Sometimes the truth offends those who need to hear it. But it’s not due to the way <\/em>it’s said. It’s due to fact <\/em>that it’s said, because it contains truth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jesus spoke words that offended many simply because He addressed things that needed to be addressed and confronted people who needed to be confronted. The important part, though, is that He spoke things with love, not with a haughty or judgmental attitude.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So should our words be spoken, pleasant like honeycomb, albeit through the somewhat tainted heart of a less-than-perfect human being, but ultimately giving sweetness to the soul and health to the bones. Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
