WORDS OF POWER AND ENCOURAGEMENT

” A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.” Proverbs 17:22

Spreading good cheer and not words of doom and gloom can sometimes be hard to do, especially if we live in a world of destruction, sadness, fear and doubt. We must begin to overcome what is happening around us and allow our thoughts to produce words that will help people and not harm them. I know from my own experience, as I have struggled and continue to struggle with this assignment. We must pray to God and dig deep into our spirits to bring out the good medicine that helps to heal. Those who are sick, fearful or doubting, will heal faster with the good medicine of a cheerful heart. When we worry or fret about things, especially things we have no control over, we become drained, tired and unable to rise up to perform the duties God has given to each of us. It is time to pray, praise and believe! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
