A big part of building a happy home is being able to control your tongue.

1 Peter 3: 8-10 says it this way: “Summing up: Be agreeable, be sympathetic, be loving, be compassionate, be humble. That goes for all of you, no exceptions. No retaliation. No sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless—that’s your job, to bless.  You’ll be a blessing and also get a blessing.  Whoever wants to embrace life and see the day fill up with good, Here’s what you do: Say nothing evil or hurtful; Snub evil and cultivate good;”

What could happen if you began to say nice things to your spouse and your children?

Weigh your words before you speak and find a way today to speak good things to your family and about your family. 

Let’s make a commitment in this new year to fill our homes with words that bring harmony and peace.

We’re praying for you to have a happy home in 2009.
