The little boy in the picture that you see on this blog is my two year old son, Miles. In the past few months, Miles has become quite verbose. He picks up words and phrases left and right often not knowing how to use them correctly. I was commenting to my wife that some of his "little sayings" would make great slogans on a t-shirt. For your reading pleasure, here are a few of Miles' most frequent "little sayings."
"DON'T BE UGLY!" (My personal favorite)
"NO, NOT YET!"
"DON'T SAY THAT!"
"NO THANK YOU!"
"THAT'S MY OUTSIDE!"
"I'M NOT A PIRATE!"
"IT NO HURT YOU"
What are the "little sayings" that people remember most about you? Our words and our use of language defines us in many ways. The writer of Proverbs says, "Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones." (16:24)
Take some time to consider your words. Are they pleasant? Do they encourage, uplift, and inspire others? Are they sweet to the soul of the listener?
