Leann and Melissa discuss the power of words and how they impact ourselves and others.
Ponder Questions:
What words am I choosing to use?
What words am I listening to?
How can I be a good steward over the words I am using?
Am I paying attention to the tone of my voice?
How can I up the energy of my words?
Am I choosing to act instead of thinking that I should, need to or have to?
Challenge:
Be more mindful of the words I use this week.
What words am I choosing to use?
Be more encouraging, uplifting and kind.
