I, too, come from a long line of family members who used to words (and physical stuff) to hurt others, and I am trying very hard to break that cycle with my child. It helps to have a strong faith in God that the abuse stops with me. I try to choose my words carefully, but sometimes things just spew from my tongue without thinking, and then I have to try and "fix" it. Once you say something, sometimes it can't be "fixed" no matter what you say or do. I am struggling with that. Thanks so much for posting this. I look forward to reading more of your blog. Jenni –

I cannot imagine what you went through as a child and despise that any child does not have the chance to experience unconditional love from parents. I am glad you are finding healing and true love from our Father. I have discovered in the past couple of years how vitally important words are, and have really tried to be intentional about everything I say-often changing what I will write or say because of that. I don't always succeed at this endeavor, but try my best to be consistent! I don't know if it has changed anyone else or if anyone even notices, but it has definitely changed my view for the better. It is a really important lesson. Blessings, friend~ Wow, Jenni-this is a great post.

I know you are blunt when it comes to what really needs to be said (a great quality IMO), but you also give out frequent and large doses of love! It's not something I'm good at myself, but knowing how much your words have impacted me, it's encouraged me to work harder at it!

So how long do you think it will take me to talk like the dude in this without thinking about it? http://www.bl.uk/learning/langlit/sounds/text-only/ni/belfast/ Every time you say “nohr” Diane thinks you’re referring to her, and I have to remind her that’s MY bit of lingual ribbing.
