Proverbs 12:15-23 ~ Discipline for Communication

Excerpt:

Do you know that under the influence of the Holy Spirit a person can speak words that bring healing to a very troubled soul?  The tongue can flow and be refreshing and bless people, but it can also be used to curse people. Our communication should be a means of blessing others.  It should be used for edification—that is, for building people up.

So, once Christ saves us, His desire is for His Spirit to use our communication and our expressions toward others as a vehicle of His grace. People’s lives are beaten down. People are having hard days.  I am not talking about positive thinking.  I am talking about the grace of God and ministering His grace.  His grace leads people to Christ.
