Importance of Sweet Words

"Getting angry is like taking a small dose of some slow-acting poison every day of your life." -Redford Williams, M.D., Anger Kills

Gary Smalley and Rex Russell compiled the following research that was most revealing in their book Food and Love,:

Medical research has studied the effect of chronic quarrelling on a person's health and have found that couples and roommates who frequently quarrel tend to have more illnesses than do the people in amicable relationships. Those who have constant fights suffer a weakening of their immune systems and are generally less healthy than those who react amicably with friends and family. A study of students at Yale University discovered that roommates who disliked each other had far more colds and flues and visits to physicians than did roommates who liked each other and the greater the dislike-the higher the number of illnesses.

Researchers of Ohio State University Medical Center brought 90 couples into lab and asked them to resolve an issue of disagreement; continuous blood monitoring for 24 hours revealed that couples who had high levels of hostility displayed significant deterioration on eight measures of the immune system. Researchers at Cambridge University in England found that couples who had constant quarrels were 13 times as likely to develop a serious illness as couples who rarely fought.

How Can I Make Sure That My Words Are a Good Influence?

If your thoughts are right, then your words will be right. It is best for every soul to closely investigate what mental food we serve our brains to chew on. Slanderous speeches, is a form of cannibalism, will not be spoken by those who are feeding on that which is the Bread of Life. When one gives place to an angry spirit, he is just as intoxicated as a drunkard.

"Giving love is a powerful healer."

When you love others, your immune system is energized to fight against the
disease. Love changes the chemical pathways of the brain strengthening your body's resistance.

There Is Someone I Just Cannot Love, What Can I Do?

There are many ways to develop appreciation and love for a person but one of the most effective ways is to include the person in your intercession at the throne of grace. It is difficult to dislike someone for whom you are praying for. God changes your heart as you pray for that person. Try it!

Also it is important to accept the person for what he is rather than for what he is not. We miss much if we fail to look for the good qualities and strengths which each person possesses.
