Ephesians 4:29-32


this was a portion that came alive to me many times and drew forth conviction and resolve in my heart. that's what i wanted to be. that's what i wanted to do.

just imagine.

what if everything that came out of my mouth built others up?
what if my words were a river of healing in people's lives?
what if i could be known for only speaking words that were "helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen"?

maybe that's not "real life", maybe it's not realistic. but it wasn't just some fake platitude to me.
that's what i truly longed to do. that's who i truly longed to be.
