Publisher's Synopsis
It's my heart's desire that the readers of this book will realize the power of their spoken words. Matthew 12:34b states, "For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks". In other words, our words mirror what's really in our hearts. The mouth speaks what the heart is full of. What you say, flows from what's in your heart. Who you are will be revealed by the words you speak. There is an old adage that says, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but WORDS will never harm me". I personally disagree. Not only can words encourage, motivate, build up and inspire, but words can also hurt, wound, damage, tear families apart and ruin reputations. The Bible declares in Ecclesiastes 3:7b, "There's a time to be silent, and a time to speak". Just because you are thinking of something negative, doesn't mean you have to say it! Think before you speak. It is so important to know when to Zip your Lip and when you need to Pause your Jaws. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Just ONE word can change YOUR life and the lives of others.
