Lots of questions to begin to understand that what we say has power.
Shouting and screaming out what you don’t like or what you don’t agree with solves nothing. That doesn’t mean you have to be a welcome mat and let everyone walk all over you.
However, you can express dislike, concern, or faults when you do it in love.
Those screams seems to be more fun than what you’re actually screaming about.
Maybe this sounds all to familiar in your household.
Criticism: The expression of disapproval of someone or something based on perceived faults or mistakes.
We ALL make mistakes. I know for me, I’m not riding the perfect train. There’s a right way to be critical of someone.
Constructive criticism.
But most of us jump on people and become more destructive building upon the hurt and tearing them down more.
Now be honest! Is that you?

Episode #144 The Heart of the Tongue
We need to take God’s lead on this. Because if He was to criticize us the way we do to others, I know I would feel as small as an ant.
But He teaches in love and forgiveness, the grace that goes beyond our understanding.
Build with constructive criticism and love.
