Sometimes we can be so selfish, in thinking we are the
Only ones with feelings.
We all have feelings and they do get hurt!
I believe our feelings can get hurt in many ways,
Such as when a word spoken causes hurt.
Sometimes it is an unkind look,
Or maybe no eye contact was given (ignored).
But mostly I think it is our words!
My husband has always said this saying:
"Maybe they are having a really bad day!"
We must extend grace, we are not perfect and all of us
Are under stress and we can become tired,
And just plain worn out.
We must not be like this selfish little girl!
The training of our tongues!
A careless word may kindle strife,
A cruel word may wreck a life,
A timely word may lessen stress,
A loving word may heal and bless.
Blessings,
He who guards his mouth preserves life.

You can either speak words of kindness and make someones day or you can not and really make them feel very hurt and sad. Nothing like bringing out the best in people! And, I'd rather eat the dirt than the worms.... HA!

It can make such a difference. I think Christians should be like Disneyland workers. They do everything to make you feel like you are at the most wonderful place on earth and you are special.
