isnt that a pretty scripture? eva and i read it this morning during our companionship study. it was under the language heading in the white handbook. we decided to make it our goal for the rest of the day to speak kind words, edify others and minister grace unto the hearers.
it wasnt as easy as i thought it would be. by the end of the day i had only done it once and i could think of several times that i could have said something to edify someone but i didnt. why didnt i? i dont know. i should've.
at the end of the night, kaylan knocked on my door (she's in town for the weekend and stopped by to visit) and we chatted for over an hour. it was great. some of the things she said were things i needed to hear. her words were good to the use of edifying and she was an example of how i can do that too. i was grateful for her example. and i wanted to be just like her!
so...as my favorite book in the whole wide world says,
