About This Quote
Let your words glorify God and edify your hearers and then beautify your life, meaning by words we mean the things we say. In order to glorify God, you have to have a firm foundation in Christ Jesus. If you have a foundation in Christ Jesus , then your words will come from a place of truth and not from a place of self-promotion or a desire to impress others. You can also use your words to edify others, but only if you do so in a way that is helpful and not harmful.
But most importantly, you can use your words to beautify your life, meaning make it more appealing. This is the greatest glory in living for many reasons. First of all, it makes you look good to others.
Strong character is an attractive trait that people admire. Second, it makes you feel good about yourself. You put more energy into making yourself look good than into doing something wrong.
Third, it helps you be happy with who you are. When you are true to yourself and free of outside influences, you will know what kind of person you want to be while living on this earth.
