Tongue
what a short organ in our body and even boneless. A bit of biology do you know that without tongue you cant
talk??? Tongue helps us to chew food and to push at the back of mouth for swallowing. So amazing I think
so!
Tongue
helps us to talk you now know!!! But how
do you use your tongue in terms of talking? So do we speak for the sake of
speaking or after a conversation with a friend how does she /he feels
immediately you stop speaking.
But
how many of us have ever realized that those words we speaks sometimes so
reckless as jokes they may seem so little
and even meaningless but how often do we know that those words we
utter reckless as jokes they carry both life and death in it?
My
friends whatever word we utter with our
mouth will determine how our lives will be . Until I read a verse in the bible Proverbs
18:21 (KJV) The tongue has the power of life and death, and those
who love it will eat its fruit.
“For as the Man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” (Proverbs 23:7) What a short but
very strong verse in the bible.
Life isn’t fair right , that what most of us say but have ever thought for a moment why we have successful people and unsuccessful yet both were born with different have potential?. The difference between these two types of people is in their thought life.A Story is told of a woman who choose to be positive with her life . The woman am talking about was just a house manager if you like a house help. This was hotelier by professional she had looked for job every where but she couldn’t find a job so she opted to get a job as a house help.
She didn’t give
up life she was always positive despite many obstacles she faced as a house
help , she knew that one day their will be a light at the end of the tunnel.
attended
a one morning Sunday service, the pastor was praying for jobless .The pastor
told the congregation that those who have applied for various jobs you have
gone to different offices and your told
no jobs go back there Monday morning and tell the employer that you have come
to work. (hehehehe this funny)
The pastor said choose a good place where you
want to work This funny right?
The
lady didn’t take this message lightly following morning the lady dressed to
work in a place she has always been admiring since her childhood .The lady knew
at her mind that she was go to work not for an interview.
To
cut long story short, the woman was an hotelier by profession just remember
this, she went to one of the 5 star hotel with branches all over the world (what an aggressive woman, I like her guts ).
She
went to the reception desk and told the receptionist that she was a new staff
and she had come to work .The receptionist told the Human Resource Manager that
they had a new staff who had come to
work remember the HRM doesn’t know anything about this.
The Human resource Manager called the lady (maid) in her office and told her that
they were not expecting a new staff maybe she is lost or something since there
were no vacancy in that hotel.
The
lady told HRM that I have come to work I know my position is there, the HRM
thought may be the lady was crazy just to chase her out of his office she told
the lady to leave her certificate and
contacts the hotel will call her in few days.
Few
days passed and the lady couldn’t receive a call from the hotel so she decided to go back to the hotel. She told the HRM that she waited for few days but she didn’t
receive a call from the office so she had come back to start her new job (funny
right? ) .
The
HRM told the lady to go to the boardroom as they had to organize themselves to
conduct an interview on her. Long story short, the lady was given a job the
same very day she went home a happy woman (what a Positive Woman) .The lady
spend most of her time flying all over the world ,reason she choose to remain
positive in her life despite many obstacles in her life and many NO’S she was
told in various offices earlier on.
The
lady when she was jobless she took life positive and she spoke positive words
over her life she knew she was great and
it was just a matter of time she will achieve her dream nevertheless.
Well,
The positive People in life have chosen
to look on the brighter side of things, even in some of the worse case
scenarios imaginable.
The
negative type of people have chosen to think and dwell on all of the bad things
that can happen or go wrong in this life. No matter what good may come their
way, they will always think that something better could have come their way. As
a result of all of this negative and morbid type of thinking in their thought
process, nothing ever makes them happy or content because nothing is ever good
enough for them.
As
I said earlier those word we speak on our daily basis they are not air but they
carry both life and death in them.
What this means is that we are directly responsible
for choosing what we think about and dwell on – and then make sure that our
thinking always lines up with the Word of God and how He wants us to think
about things.
The power lies with us. We cannot blame anyone else,
including God Himself, if we have chosen with our own free wills to constantly
dwell on the negative and darker side of this life.
Bottom
line – we all have to learn how to develop right thinking in our thought
process. Our part is to do the best we can to try and think and dwell on the
things that God wants us to be concentrating and focusing on.
We do not have to become slaves to negative and
pessimistic type thinking. In other words, we can choose to think about what we
want to think about!
Our thinking and thought process does not control us
– we control it! Negative type thinking can be broken. For many, it has become
an actual mental stronghold because they have been mired down into this type of
negative thinking for such a long period of time.
Some
people are too judgmental and too critical of others. Maybe whatever word you
speak leaves others with more sorrow and pain but remember to be either
positive or negative is a matter of choice. In the first place you choose
negativity over your life you can choose to be positive again.
Your part will be to do the best you can to
try and cast down these types of negative and destructive thoughts and replace
them with more positive and godly types of thoughts.
