A word Fitly spoken finds its source in time spent with the Lord Acts4:13-20 Peter and John only spoke of the things they had seen and heard. Isaiah50:4 we have been given the tongue of the learned that we should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary,He WAKENS morning by morning He WAKENS my ear to hear as the learned Isaiah28:11-12 rest for the weary as they come unto JESUS and Learn of Him Mt11:28-30 Eph4:20-24 Time to arise and shine for the Light has come Isaiah60:1 Eph5:14 -17..time to be wise and understand what the will of the Lord is ! Jn6:63 Spirit and Life

It is indescribably beautiful and when I read it I asked God what kind of words would be fitly spoken and it came to me through him MY WORD. I started memorizing scripture and it has been the most rewarding thing I have ever done in my life.
