Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to t<\/strong>he mind and healing to the body.<br \/>\n\u2014 Proverbs 16:23-24<br \/>\nThoughts and Words Are Intimately Connected<br \/>\n&#8211; by Joyce Meyer<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 16:23-24 shows us that our thoughts and words are intimately connected. They are like bone and marrow\u2014so close, it is hard to divide them (see Hebrews 4:12). Because of this, it\u2019s important that we have pleasant thoughts so we can also have pleasant words.<\/p>\n<p>Our thoughts are silent words that only we and the Lord hear, but those words affect our inner man, our health, our joy and our attitude. The things we think about often come out of our mouths and sometimes make us look foolish, but if we live God\u2019s way, our thoughts and words can make our lives more enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t make the mistake of thinking that you can let your thought life run in any worldly direction and then \u201cfake it\u201d by speaking godly words. Either both are pleasing or both are negative and sinful. There is no middle ground.<\/p>\n<p>Begin to operate in the mind of Christ, and you will step into a whole new realm of living. As you spend time letting Him adjust your thinking, you won\u2019t have to think about speaking pleasant words. It will just happen naturally!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Highly classified US spy satellite appears to be a total loss after SpaceX launch CNBC.com A highly classified U.S. government satellite appears to have been totally lost after being taken into space by a recent launch from Elon Musk&#8217;s SpaceX, according to a new report.
