Your words build or destroy?

in #wafrica6 years ago


    Hello to all the great community, today I come to talk about the use we give our way of expressing ourselves and communicate, which is used according to what each person keeps in his heart, can be used as a weapon of salvation, as it can also be of destruction.

 It is used to bless, speak, sing, praise, correct, send positive messages, optimistic, reconcile, encourage or you can use it to curse, criticize, slander, lie, gossip, complain. 

You can easily destroy someone's life, speaking and unfairly disclosing some aspect that may be true or false, I do not want to say that making a critic is completely negative; It becomes a big problem when you find the defects in others and you are not able to observe your own mistakes.

On many occasions it also becomes a conflict, the way we send the message to others; therefore we must take into account what we say and as we say, language is the strongest and most flexible organ of the human body, capable of committing an endless number of evils, so much so that they have come to classify it as a "weapon of mass destruction" , the tongue, is a very small part of the body, capable of great things; at a time in a large forest, it can be burned by a small fire and the tongue can be that fire, by the way in which it is handled. 

Some people downplay verbal aggression, saying, is no more serious than physical violence.

 The difference is that the first does not leave visible evidence, but, despite this, sometimes the wounds that open in the soul of the victim are harder to heal than physical wounds.     

God has given us the great gift of hearing so that we listen to each other with respect and have also given us the wonder of speech so that we communicate, based on the truth, in a climate of friendship.

It is more for some reason we have two ears and one mouth; I think it has to be to listen more and talk less. 

We must always be aware that our words are to edify and not to destroy.
