Words are powerful.
They can lift up or tear down.
Encourage or discourage.
Help or hurt.
Our words form in our hearts before they form in our mouths.
That’s why it’s important to make sure our hearts are right before we speak, and to ask God to help us so he can use our words to minister to others.

Experiencing affliction is a reality of living in an imperfect world.

Hope is a powerful thing.
It props us up when we’re discouraged.
It shines a light into the darkness.
It gives us a reason to get out of bed in the morning.
God knows that we need hope, and he provides it through a relationship with Jesus, the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives, and the promise of spending eternity with him.
