Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a word spoken in the right circumstances. Proverbs 25:11
Doesn't that make a pretty picture. When we speak like a hammer, or choose to speak with a feather, the picture changes. Seldom is a word spoken like a hammer is in the right circumstances. A kind word, a gentle word, a loving word, usually helps every circumstance. Let's consider carefully what kind of picture our words will paint. May the words we choose always help others feel better, not worse.
