"Right Words" by Pastor Matt Frayer

James 3:8-10, vs 10-"out of the mouth proceeded blessing..."

As I write this devotional, on Mother's Day, I have been careful to use the right words.  You may ask, what are the right words?  They are: I love you, I'm sorry, please forgive me, you look beautiful, or maybe I am here for you. 

Men, I know we are usually of few words.  We sometimes don't communicate well.  For the sake of your marriage, please try.  Remember, we are not perfect but we can say nice things.

Here is something I would like to share with you.  My wife had her third hernia repair surgery.  I thought I was going to loose her for a bit.  We decided to live a more healthy life style and set goals for weight loss.  She had reached her first weight loss goal, and I told her how proud I was of her.  I truly am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I have tried to encourage her each and every day.

Men, we can use our words of comfort and encouragement.  We do not have to use words that hurt.  Try saying positive words or "the right words" this week and truly mean it.  I guarantee you will be on the right track for a healthy and happy marriage.
