Words have power
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me”
Yet words have power
On the contrary, what does it say? The message is near you, in your mouth and in your heart. This is the message of faith that we proclaim: If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
the message is in your heart-
“A good tree doesn’t produce bad fruit; on the other hand, a bad tree doesn’t produce good fruit. For each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs aren’t gathered from thornbushes, or grapes picked from a bramble bush. A good person produces good out of the good stored up in his heart. An evil person produces evil out of the evil stored up in his heart, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.

Is God actually Good?
The answer is evident by your live
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own understanding;
in all your ways know him,
and he will make your paths straight.
Trust comes through relationship-
To you, my strength, I sing praises,
because God is my stronghold—
my faithful God.
This is a confession - God is Faithful to me, He is my strength
That is why I sing His praise- Declare the good things He does
some promises that we can confess
You will keep the mind that is dependent on you
in perfect peace,
for it is trusting in you.
The Lord is the one who will go before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or abandon you. Do not be afraid or discouraged.”
God’s goes and makes a way for me no matter what tries sand in the way
I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. You will have suffering in this world. Be courageous! I have conquered the world.”
A person’s steps are established by the Lord,
and he takes pleasure in his way.
Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed,
because the Lord supports him with his hand.
“Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take up my yoke and learn from me, because I am lowly and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
