The greatest influence in our life is our own words. Once something is said we can never take it back, yikes! Saying things we wish we could take back may go so far as to destroy a relationship, which changes things in our lives forever.
Sometimes we voice an opinion that is similar to the opinion of the one we are speaking with, but given the time to think it over we realize it really isn't our opinion at all. However, once it is spoken we now feel we must defend it rather than change it.
What we say does influence us positively or negatively. That is why the wisest man who ever lived said, “A word fitly spoken and in due season is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” Proverbs 25:11
Consider the power of words. Especially the ones we speak!
