> Practical Family Living

We all have pre-recorded tapes that play in our minds.  These tapes were largely created in our childhood.  Our experiences as teens and adults can make some modifications to the tapes.  For some of us we hear, “You are competent,” “you are worthy;” and for others of us we hear, “you can’t do it,” “why try?”  What recordings are we making for our children?  What recordings or re-recordings are we making for friends and family?  Are we blessing those around us with encouraging, kind, and compassionate words?  Your words have enormous power to uplift and encourage, use them well.
