Good Morning World! Words build or kill. We can unleash a barrage of words into the psyche of someone & do as much damage as a machine gun to their flesh. We can also release words like medicine to their mind, lift their spirits, encourage their heart & strengthen their will to be better. Speaking life changes attitudes, brightens the countenance & changes appearance. Killing with words? Speak life. Have a great day!
