If I could change one thing in the world right now when it comes to relationships, it would be this wave of cynicism that has overtaken people. My thought is the cynicism I see expressed throughout this world these days is not serving people well at all.
It's making things worse.
Any statement that begins with "All", "Many" or "Most" is probably wrong before even the next word is typed. But think about how often TODAY you will read or hear someone say "(All) women don't...." or "Most men..." Frankly, I think we need to give people more credit than that. Substitute the word "some" in their place and you might be closer to the truth. Maybe.
More importantly, these words you speak aren't ministering grace to the hearers and is destroying fruit. A lot of what you think has to be said, doesn't. Not at all. Even worse, you're hurting more than you're helping.
"Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear." ~ Ephesians 4:29
Death and life are still in the power of the tongue. If you want to have healthy relationships, you have to speak healthy relationships over yourself and over those around you. Complaining, categorizing and generally making a commotion doesn't help. Not at all. Your words shape your life.
