Nancy and Colin Campbell
On Faithful Friday's, I've been sharing how God's been so faithful to me. One of the ways He has done this is by connecting me with wonderful godly people that have enlarged my territory. My friend, Nancy Campbell, is one such person. She is an Internationally known author, speaker, and authority of Biblical Motherhood and Family. Called to the encouragement of wives and mothers around the world for over 4 decades. Nancy is the Editress of their magazine ABOVE RUBIES which reaches more than 100 countries. Nancy allowed me to publish several articles about our family in the ABOVE RUBIES magazine, and because of that God used her kindness and generosity to enlarge my ministry adding persons from the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Australia, and Africa to my own mailing list. She is one of the sweetest people I know, and she truly walks like Jesus.
Her friendship has been such an encouragement to me, and her words of wisdom always inspire. For instance, her FB post "A LIFE-GIVING FOUNTAIN" riveted my attention. Since this week I've shared about 'Being A Voice' (see im-perfectparenting.com Blog -Teaching Tuesday, May 26, 2020) , I asked if I could share her post about what our VOICE should sound like. I hope you are as convicted as my heart was!
"A LIFE-GIVING FOUNTAIN" by Nancy Campbell
What is pouring out of your mouth today, dear wife and mother? We build our marriages and homes with our words. It is one of our most powerful building tools. Many marriages fall apart for one reason—bitter, angry, and negative words.
Our words have power to build or destroy.
Wait a minute! We have the life of Jesus Christ dwelling within us to speak positive words into our marriages and into the lives of each one of our children. Life-giving words. Loving words. Healing words. Encouraging words. Sweet words. Affirming words. Uplifting words. Oh yes, these make our marriage great. These are the words that build up our homes and families.
Proverbs 10:11 says: ‘The mouth of the righteous is a WELL OF LIFE.” Most other translations say: “The mouth of the righteous is a FOUNTAIN OF LIFE.” Life-giving water pouring out on your husband and children.
I love Proverbs 10:32 (TPT): “Words that bring delight POUR from the lips of the godly.”
What power you have as a mother to fill your home with life and vitality. Light and joy. Laughter and happiness. Love and goodness. All through the words that come out of your mouth.
Be a life-giving fountain today.
Blessings from Nancy Campbell
