Life in Words


Not with toil and not with struggle, but by the word of His mouth did the One Above create His world.

Not with toil and not with struggle, but with words of wisdom and kindness does He require we sustain it.

If so, what is the effort He demands from us?

That we invest our very essence in those words, as He invested His very essence within this world He made.

Life in Words
I'm known as a "nice guy." A "sweet guy." Always there to help others.
But I've struggled with controlling the words that often leave my mouth. My biggest problem is when I feel that I've been hurt by someone. I then lash out with disproportionately cruel words. I know that "LaShon HaRah" (evil talk) is wrong (and a great sin), but I always feel that I must defend myself ... and I therefore see my words as justified.
However, your short "Daily Dose" has given me a unique perspective upon which to meditate.
Thank you so much.
