I go to a lunch on Thursdays at 1st baptist church and pastor Dale gives some great insight during the meal. Here are some of my notes from last time:

Notes on blessings
False understandings
-Criticism is a good tool for change.
-We keep believing that negative reinforcement will help change people
-feel that encouragement or blessings would be too extravagant
Need to:
-stop cursing - negative words are curses
Blessings are not to be used to reward bad actions.
If you are not careful you can only become a corrector and not a blesser.
