Being good to folks can give us moments without future regrets. We do not feel bad about our kindness. We do get upset with ourselves about our harshness. We sometimes come to see too late that our words were inappropriate or unkind. Relationships get weakened or strengthened through words. It is the difference between short term or lifelong friendships. Speak words that edify and build up those in your life. There are enough harsh words already tumbling around in their brains.
“The Lord GOD has given Me The tongue of the learned, That I should know how to speak A word in season to him who is weary.” Isaiah 50:4a (NKJV)
