proverbs 12:18

"There is one who speaks like the piercing of the sword, but the tongue of the wise promotes health."

"This verse talks directly about the things we say. It says some people hurt others with what comes out of their mouths, but wise people use healing words. Do you want your words to stab people or bring them to healing? The choice is yours. Nobody can force you to say something. You have to think it and then open your lips to let it out. You can stop the message or change it anytime you want.
Think about what you said to people this week. Did you tease your little sister or talk back to your parents? Did you join other kids in making fun of a student at school? It's easy to say something but impossible to take it back. And while you can't take back words, you can work to make things better with people you may have hurt. Ask God to bring to mind people to whom you should apologize. Then pray you'll have the courage to make things right."

Psalm 139:13-14

"For You formed my inward parts; you covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made, marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well."

"Sometimes David just liked to sit, think, write about God. In these verses he recognizes God's awesome creative powers. It's God who forms each one of us, and all of his works are wonderful. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Doesn't that make you feel special? When God made Earth, stars, planets, plants, animals, he "saw that it was good" (Gen 1:25). But when God made the first man and woman, the Bible says 'it was excellent in every way' (Gen 1:31). All people are created in God's image-no matter the color of their skin or if they're mentally or physically challenged. You might know someone with a disability. Maybe you try to avoid that person. Next time, why not make a point of saying hi and treating him like one of God's amazing creations? Ask God ot help you treat all people as his special creation."

Ecclesiastes 7:8

"The end of a thing is better than its beginning; The patient is spirit is better than the proud in spirit."

"During his day , king Solomon was considered the wisest man in the world. In this verse Solomon says finishing a project is better than starting one. He adds that having patience is better than being proud. do you start things but don't have time to finish them? Do you feel that days are too short because you can't get everything done? You might be too busy. If your life is out of whack because you're hanging out with friends too much or spending a lot of time playing sports, you may want to ask your parents to help you bring your life back in balance. And if you're too busy to spend a little time with God every day, it's time for a balance check. Ask God to show you where you can make more time for him every day."
