Speak Good Words
Lately as I thought about my cat and what he is going through. I repented of calling him my cutie monster. Why? Because I believe he will believe it and become it. It is the same way with children.

"By your words you will be acquitted and by your words you will be condemned." (MT 12:37). Acquitted and condemned are legal words.
