Jesus said every word that we speak will be brought up at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Proverbs says our words have the power to give life and the power to kill the motivation and hope in others. I am in Nevada teaching a parenting seminar and a main emphasis that I am making is teaching our kids how to talk and communicate, that includes social media, in such a way that they give life and hope and joy to those who hear them. Our communication skill will be powerful to give life if it isn’t about us, but purposely thought out so as to give worth and value to others, to give joy and hope to others, to create unity and love in others. Much speech and communication today causes conflict and disunity because it is loaded with fussing and whining about how we are not being treated fairly, and about the negative and what is bad and wrong. Very few things make me feel more fulfilled in life than listening to my kids talk to others or read what they write on Facebook. They will bear much fruit for God because they understand the power of a word spoken or written to give life or death, and they choose to give life.
