Breaking the Power of Negative Words (How Positive Words Can Heal) is a useful book for anyone who has had negative words directed at them. Since we live in a fallen world, I think this would include the vast majority of us! Whether spoken by family members, friends, or complete strangers, words are powerful and can affect the way that we view ourselves, either positively or negatively. The author, Mary C. Busha, systematically outlines ways we can overcome the negative words from our past and replace them with life-giving words that are only possible through God!
Part 1 is entitled “Words Spoken to Us”. It examines how we can carry words directed at us for a lifetime and how we can work through some of the issues that may develop as a result. Part 2 is called “Words We Speak to Ourselves”. Whether we realize it or not, all of us have an inner dialogue that we should also monitor. Finally, Part 3, “Words We Speak to Others” is an important reminder that we need to be careful with the words we use towards others. I would recommend Breaking the Power of Negative Words if you or someone you know is struggling in these areas.
