We Grow: A Journey of Drawing Closer to God

DAY 18 OF 365

Day 18 of 365

​​Job insists on his integrity, committing not to let his lips speak falsehood or deceit. Jesus reminds us in Matthew 12 that our words reveal the condition of our hearts, saying that the mouth speaks from the abundance of the heart. The Holy Spirit works within us to cultivate a heart that reflects God’s love and truth, transforming our words to align with His character.

As we yield to the Spirit, He helps us speak life, encouragement, and wisdom to those around us. Our words become a reflection of His work in us, drawing others toward God.

Today, invite the Spirit to shape your words and purify your heart. Let your speech be filled with grace and truth, allowing God’s love to shine through you.
