A Kind Word Proverbs

There are various verses in Proverbs that refer to kind words.

Proverbs 15:4 - A wholesome tongue is a tree of life.

Proverbs 16:24 - Pleasant words are like honeycomb; sweet to the soul and marrow to the bones.

Proverbs 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.

The general gist is kindness with one's words. I did not include the whole verse for Proverbs 15:4, as the remainder of that verse was not very kind.

But I have used the verses of Proverbs to inspire more words of kindness, by translating the majority of verses of Proverbs into kind words of affirmations.

It is easier to learn when one learns in peace and not fear of something. Proverbs as Affirmations provides that scenario. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

There is a journal version (8-1/2 by 11 inches, pictured on the right), which includes lines to write the affirmations for added reinforcement, or the portable smaller version (6 by 9 inches, pictured on the left), without lines, which is easier to carry.

Much blessings to you on your journey.

Do you struggle with reading Bible verses

Do you struggle with reading Bible verses?. You are not alone. Many people have and do.

There are many authors who have written about where to find help in the Bible about a specific type of situation. They mostly say to trust in God, which isn't bad in and of itself.

But a lot of people struggle with actual verses themselves, with good reason. Many Bible verses have come across as condescending, with hints and sometimes dire threats of what could happen if the person didn't do things in just the right way.

I'm here to say it can be different. You don't have to feel threatened in order to do things right. In fact, that is not a congenial or loving way to learn.

You can learn to trust and believe in God, Spirit, and learn to live a more fulfilling life; one that is built on integrity, love, honor, and respect.

In Proverbs as Affirmations: An Affirmation Journal for Self Transformation, you will find verses that are built on positive outcomes, verses that have been built into beneficial affirmations, without the talking down to and or threatening language.

You are worth experiencing a better feeling life, and to experience God, Spirit, in a better feeling way.

You can also tailor these affirmations to fit your own individual needs and desires. For instance, you may not want to have a spouse or even a partner. You can tailor those affirmations into statements about family and or friends.

Blank lines are provided after the affirmations where you can tailor them as you see fit, and or you can write them as they are to better reinforce the affirmations info your own life.

Enough lines are provided that you can do this multiple times. You can write the affirmations one month, and go back next month, and write each one again. You can work your way through doing a chapter a day.

Repetition helps in building beliefs. That is how your original beliefs got their start. The good news is that old beliefs can be transformed into new beliefs. They can be overcome. You will find tips in the beginning of Proverbs as Affirmations: An Affirmation Journal for Self Transformation, that I have used myself in transforming some of my own beliefs.

May you be blessed with reading affirmations that are helpful to you. Read positive affirmations in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Taking new action

As you read, write, and learn these affirmations, you may be inspired to take new action. Perhaps you'll be inspired to listen to a meditation, go for a walk, say a prayer, give thanks, make amends of some sort, give a gift, give a compliment, etc. The list can include any number of new ways of acting and or being.

You also may just sit quietly and take time to let the affirmations sink in more. For some affirmations, you might need to take some time to wrap your head around them. I have found that if I find any resistance at all when I first read any of the affirmations, to simply repeat it, and maybe repeat it a couple of more times. I find that helpful as I continue to adjust my thinking.

Remember that affirmations are based on desires and not necessarily what you are currently experiencing. So some affirmations can take more time to make them part of your being and your beliefs.

Take your time, be gentle with yourself. Go smile at yourself in front of a mirror and pay yourself a compliment, i.e. "You're doing a good job. Good going. I love you."

As we change the thoughts in our mind and the way we think, new ideas can come forth. Divine Spirit works in wondrous ways.


May you be blessed with the knowledge of your connection to God and taking more positive actions. Read more helpful thoughts in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: An Affirmation Journal for Self Transformation

Proverbs as Affirmations: An Affirmation Journal for Self Transformation, is now published.

There is a verse in the biblical version of Proverbs 25 that basically says, by taking the impurities out of sliver, the artist creates a thing of beauty.

It has been my endeavor to remove the not feel good statements from the original verses so that all of God's children can more easily comprehend their meaning, and feel love, rather than fear.

May you be blessed by the reading of and applying these translations in your own life.

These new verses, the affirmations, are followed by blank lines for you to be able to write down the affirmations for added reinforcement, and or you can use these lines to tailor the words to be more fitting for your circumstances.

This final version is written a bit differently than my original writings. I made the verses shorter so that they are easier to remember. Therefore there can be more verses in a chapter than what was originally written. I left off verse numbers since they no longer correspond to that specific original biblical verse by number.

Some of the earlier verses were more repetitive. I expanded on some of these to give them more meaning. For instance, some verses referred to having a good marriage, but they didn't say how. One example that I wrote is: My spouse and I create happy, enjoyable experiences together.

If you and your spouse or partner already create happy, enjoyable experiences together, you might want to modify the verse to say something else that you want to have in your marriage.

This book is for you, to help you on your path in creating more pleasantness in your life, to have more good things happen in in your life, to bring more insights into your life, and to have more contentment.

You may choose to read this book straight through to get a general feel for it. Then you may go back and read it again, this time taking it more slowly; taking time to write, recite, and or record, the affirmations that are more pertinent to you and your desired self transformation.

Other tips and ideas are printed at the beginning of the book, along with some of the backstory as to how Proverbs as Affirmations came about.

Without further ado, you can purchase your own copy of Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

There is a journal version (8-1/2 by 11 inches, pictured on the right), which includes lines to write the affirmations for added reinforcement, or the portable smaller version (6 by 9 inches, pictured on the left), without lines, which is easier to carry.

Much blessings to you on your journey.
