A Good Word

Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad.

~ Proverbs 12:25 (NKJV)

Anxiety, fear and worry are part of a fallen world. From time to time, all people succumb to the uncertainties surrounding them. Though common, it is not ideal. This worry can and does affect the heart of the person. It cast doubt where God desires faith.

Proverbs exhorts us to encourage those we see burdened with a heavy heart. We are to bring a “good word” to lift the heart and spirit of our fellow man. Where are you today? In need of getting or giving a good word? In either case, may we be found faithful unto the Lord.
