Pleasant Words Are a Honeycomb
Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and healing to the bones.
The words that left my mouth today — were they honey or thorns to someone's heart?
📝Reflection
The older I get, the more I feel how a word can heal or kill. A warm word costs nothing, yet to the one who receives it, it is a day's worth of medicine. For too long I was busy being right, and hoarded my kindness. Only now do I see that a warm word carries a person farther than a correct one.
🌱Apply It Today
Today, offer one person close to you a word of encouragement instead of judgment — for no reason at all.
This verse is read as universal humanistic wisdom, not religion — no faith is promoted, and the reflection is 100% original ONGO content.
