“Maybe it isn’t the words themselves that matter,
but the lilt and cadence of kindness and love
that carries the sounds from the heart to the mouth and into the world.”*
Word of God and Wisdom of God,
help me “speak kindness” in all my words
and actions and gestures and looks
and even silences.
Help me keep in mind:
Kindness gives grace.
Amen.
