Proverbs 12:6

Words are powerful weapons — for good or for evil. The wicked use speech as a trap, an ambush for harm. The upright person uses speech as a tool of rescue and deliverance. Every word we speak either tears down or builds up, harms or saves.

Memory phrase: Upright words rescue others.

Talk about it: Can words really hurt people or save them? How?

Prayer: God, let my words rescue people, not trap them.
