Eternally Important

Gracious speech is like clover honey -
good taste to the soul, quick energy for the body.
Proverbs 16:24, The Message

"Our daily encounters with bank tellers, post office clerks, and gas station attendants are, each one, elements of sin and grace. All of these people and each of these encounters is a significant detail in the life of faith. But we are not aware of it. Most of the time we are not living in a crisis in which we are conscious of our need of God, yet everything we do is critical, to our faith, and God is critically involved in it.

All day long we are doing eternally important things without knowing it. All through the day we inadvertently speak words that enter people lives and change them in minor or major ways, and we never know it."
