Happy Easter, dear friends!

Over these weeks of Lent, we’ve tried to be mindful of the words and ways we speak to others.

Our wearied souls are soothed when we use the Bible’s rich advice to perfect the pause, measure our motives, monitor our methods, build our brothers, and learn to leave.

When our words are kind and gentle, our spirits will be, too. We have fewer regrets and become more charitable and peaceful.

Today, let’s wield our words well, confident in the guidance of God’s Word.

Yes, He is risen, and with that joy, we can rest in the knowledge that God loves us even if we haven’t perfected the challenge of using our words well. He knows we’re not perfect.

But we can keep trying!
