You don\\\\\\\'t have a ton of things in common with God, but there is one thing you speak
So does he
God spoke light into existence with his words
I wonder what you could speak into existence with your words this week
I wonder what kind of love you could speak into your marriage that feels like it\\\\\\\'s a neutral, what kind of courage you could speak into the heart of a child who\\\\\\\'s hurting
I wonder what kind of peace you could speak into your broken friendship
What kind of hope you could speak into your own weary soul
I want you to know that the most powerful words you\\\\\\\'re going to speak this week is probably not going to be on a stage or a conference call or closing the deal with a client that you want
The most powerful words you\\\\\\\'re going to speak is probably just with one or two people listening, maybe zero
It\\\\\\\'s totally possible that the most powerful sentence you\\\\\\\'ll say this week is a thoughtful text message that you send to a friend who\\\\\\\'s walking through the valley of the shadow of death
It\\\\\\\'s the apology email that you finally get the courage to send
It\\\\\\\'s the whispered prayers through tears in the middle of a dark night
Powerful
Words aren\\\\\\\'t just for preachers who stand behind pulpits
They\\\\\\\'re for parents who stand next to bunk beds
Speak life for
Kids, for spouses who share hopes and dreams during pillow talk, not criticism for teenagers who stand up to bullies
Stand up for the uncool kids
Your tongue is so small but so powerful
Your tongue is telling a story
