Challenge #52

Have you noticed that it brings happiness to your spouse when you do things for them? It's hard not to love someone who goes out of their way for you, someone who does what is best for you. I encourage you all to keep your spouse's best interest at heart.

So on to today's challenge!

Have you ever heard someone say "it's not what you said, it's how you said it?" Sometimes it is better to say nothing at all than to say something, even good things, the "wrong" way. More times than I can count, I have both said and heard words that in themselves were not wrong, but when taken in the context of the speaker - tone of voice, gestures, body language, facial expressions, etc. - were very damaging. Today focus not only on your words but how you say them. Let your context, especially your tone, reflect one of kindness and consideration as you speak with your spouse today.

Remember Ephesians 4:29? We read it earlier...
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers
