Dirty Dishes

Words are Powerful. Words have tremendous power to heal & bless, and terrible force to harm & curse.

Our intention determines all. That's why it's important to consider the person with whom we are speaking and to know where our heart is.

Think before you speak. Be in control of every word that leaves your mouth. Use your words as a force for helping people. If you make a mistake. Own up to eat. Clean up after yourself. Do the Dishes.

Dirty dishes can be difficult, but they're even worse when you let them sit for a while. The longer they sit, the harder they are to clean.

This is life. Something that is potentially easy to clean up right after it happens -an unkind word to your father, a lie to your best friend, an insensitivity to your girlfriend - can become a difficult mess if you don't deal with it now.

Do your dishes today. Meet your problems half-way.
