365 Day Photo Challenge Day 8






365 Day Photo Challenge
Day 8

Fires are beautiful. Don't you think? 
Fires can bring people together. In my 
family our fireplace is the heart of our family room. We love hanging out with 
each other, listening to the crackle of the warm flames.

But as we all know, fires can also tear 
things apart.

Think about how fires are started. With a little spark. One spark can ignite a whole 
forest fire.

It reminds me of how words can either bring people together or ignite a wildfire of malice 
and rage.

Are you being care of which words you 
choose? Are you choosing words of love or 
are you choosing words that cause damage? 

Trust me. This is a heart check for me, too. 
I have moments of bitterness and anger 
and I blaze up some heat with people I am supposed to love the most. 

But we aren't meant to live life that way. 
You MUST choose your words wisely and put 
out any fire you know will do harm.

God wants us to show love and compassion 
for people. Even those who don't deserve 
it the most.

Don't let your words be fuel to fire.
