Proverbs 18:20 NIV
From the fruit of their mouth a person’s stomach is filled;

Isn’t this another vivid image! It reminds us that words are more than just passing sounds, here one moment and gone the next.

Spirit, help me to produce good fruit through my conversation today – may my words in conversation and in writing be an act of worship.
Ps. Don’t forget to pray for and promote the Alpha Course…
