day no. 15,200: the tail of two mortars

2 Corinthians 10:3-6
For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.

Words are mortars. They are weapons. They are destructive. They are meant to bring down the high-minded.

Words are mortar. They are building materials. They are constructive. They are meant to build up the lowly.

By our words, we wage war. We speak the words of God and the world is etiolated and the church is animated.
