Kind Words
by Barbara Philbrook

Kind words may make another's day,
they may even chase a sad thought away.

Kind words may make another smile,
may even make them see they have been in denial.

Kind words may melt a heart that was hard and cold,
may even erase an untruth that was told.

Kindness spoken in tenderness and love,
may be the window providing a glimpse of
our God above.

Kindness is caring about another,
and may be the invitation by which they become a Christian brother.

Kindness is how Jesus touched your heart,
now pass it on as was meant from the start.

A kind word spoken each and every day,
can expand God's love is a most bountiful way.

God promises to give us the words to speak,
in Exodus 4:12  just take a peek.

The love is a gift. The words are provided.
It is all so easy once you've decided.

Kind words bring others so much delight,
while sharing with others God's precious light.
