Scriptures
- Proverbs 31:25-30 (NLT) - ‘She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness. She carefully watches everything in her household, and suffers nothing from laziness. Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her: There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!” Charm is deceptive and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised.”
- Ephesians 5:25-26 (NLT) - "For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word."
- Proverbs 18:21 (MSG) - “Words kill, words give life; they're either poison or fruit - you choose."
- Proverbs 15:1 (KJV) - "A soft answer turns away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger."
- II Corinthians 2:15 (TLB) - “As far as God is concerned there is a sweet, wholesome fragrance in our lives. It is the fragrance of Christ within us, an aroma to both the saved and the unsaved all around us.”
