Devotion:
Proverbs 16:24, “Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.”
Proverbs 25:11, “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.”
Have someone speak on the importance of choosing our words and our conversation carefully. There are many examples in the Scripture about our words.
