For your consideration…
Today’s message is specific to using our words to say what needs to be said in order to mend our hearts, our spirits, and/or help others.
Some of us have a hard time doing this. Perhaps we think it is not our business, and we bite our tongues. Sometimes we have used words that have hurt ourselves and/or others. Sometimes we have been hurt and not said anything. Or perhaps, we have argued and it is still not settled, so we go over it and over it in our minds until it becomes much bigger than it was to begin with.
Of course, sometimes it is better to have a cooling-off period if things are too intense. But that is all the more reason to come right back at it and get it settled once cooler heads prevail.
We might think that too much damage has been done but that is all the more reason to use our words to try and mend ourselves and others. We may be right and too much damage is done but we do not have to let it eat away at our souls. We can choose to forgive and let it go.
But we could also be wrong, and there is a path forward if we use our words and try to mend.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
