Words matter. 

In the beginning, God spoke creation into being… with words. And ever since, God’s been inviting us to join him in the creative process. 

So use your words. 

Use your words to speak life into your day. Replace any negative thoughts or ideas swirling around your brain with helpful, affirming words. Meditate on verses like this:

What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? …In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.Romans 8:31-32,37

Let them soak in. Apply them to your challenges today. We’re not Pollyanna, but we’re committed to training our brains to focus on empowering, affirming thoughts that will shape our day… and then our life. 

So put your words to use. First, affirm YOU. Then, from a place of security and strength, you can genuinely affirm others. 

This is a great way to start your day.
