The Power of Words

At Samson Wear and Samson LIFE, we believe in the power of words to transform lives.

Whether through science or through our own experiences, we know words have the power to create or destroy, lift or lay waste. Your thoughts and words matter and have power.

Words are Seeds

Words are like seeds that carry with them the power of their meaning. So when words (thought, spoken or written) are planted in our impressionable minds and tender hearts, they take root and grow into the meaning associated with them. If that word carries a positive meaning then positive and welcome things unfold. If a negative meaning weighs down a word, then the unwanted occurs. Words have the power to create or destroy and lift or lay waste; that is why we must be cautious of the words we use on a daily basis.

Words are the seeds of creation and they define who you will become. That begs two obvious questions:  Who do you want to become? and What do you want to create? Because you get to decide.

Since our use of language becomes habitual, it’s easy to get stuck in a “negative” rut. Consciously keep track of what you are saying to yourself to see if any changes need to be made. We put together this list to help you.
