The Better Way
There have been times when I have talked in anger and my
face was flaming red...
But those were times when I have uttered something stupid
which I wished later that I had not said.
Calm, cool and collected is the type of guy I want to be...
But in an unguarded moment I have been the type of guy
you don't like to see.
So I asked the Lord to help me to choose the proper things to
say...
And now sometimes I say something special to help someone
to have a better day.
The words we speak to each other have tremendous power you
know...
Some words can bring us down and others help us grow.
Say something nice to someone and then watch their face start
to glow...
Kind and gentle words is a great way to let your character show.
Remember, we all need a little praise as we journey through the day...
And praising others is always the cool and better way.
