No One Likes a Hypocrite

Proverbs 16:24 
Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, 
sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

Does it seem as if women have the most trouble with their words?
Gossip, back biting, shortness with family members.
The writer of Proverbs reminds us that our words can bring health and sweetness.
My Bible linked me to this verse.

Proverbs 15:26 b
...but the words of the pure are pleasant words.

While there is truth that the manner the words are spoken and the words themselves 
help to make pleasant words,
 the cross-reference reminded me that pleasant words also come from a life without hypocrisy.

Do you have struggles in your home or ministries?
Could they come because you say one thing and do another?
