Rhonda,

You said words can do such damage,

This, reminds me, that I read once,

That words are like toothpaste. just like toothpaste, once they are out you 
cant get the toothpaste back in the tube again. So once something horrible 
is said, you cant take it back in again

I have not put it very well, but I hope you all understand.

Love,
Malcolm.

It is so sad….this pastor and I use the word lightly  needs prayer too…words
can do such dammage  we should speak the truth in love….would love  belittle
someone, make them feel as though they were worth nothing?  When Jesus  saw
the woman caught in adultery did  He tell her how wrong she was, how she
should have resisted the temptation,  did  he criticize her, NO! He showed
her love, something she had probably never known, the very thing she had
been looking for,  the reason she was in adultery, looking for love in the
wrong place!!

God help us,  show us how to love, give us a heart of compassion, not of
condemnation!

Rhonda
