The picture below was taken a few years ago at the Sadie Robertson Live Original in San Antonio. The picture is of the Christian band “Love & the Outcome”.

Words are powerful
They direct our life
Either building up
Or cutting like a knife.

Encouragement,
Guidance and instruction
Following the Way
In His direction.

Words of life, of truth,
And of great value
Spurring us on
With I love you.

A child of God
Is the Word to hear
Giving a lift
Taking away fear.

Encouraged today
Living with passion
Over and above
What we could imagine.
