The tongue, while small, is powerful in its impact. We all struggle to say the right thing at the right time. Over the next three days, we will engage with God's Word and focus on the importance of using our words wisely.

Words are powerful. Your voice has the ability to bring good or evil into your life. We must always remember that we have an enemy who loves to whisper lies in our ears and has the power to bring those lies into the world through our mouths. Our job is to discern which voice we listen to and be careful about what we say, think, and believe.

Encouragement from a mom who launched her 7 children and lived to tell about it. Part 3 in this series of 12.

Examine the book of James in three parts: the test of faith, the characteristics of faith, and the triumph of faith. Faith without works cannot be called faith. Faith without works is dead, and a dead faith is worse than no faith at all. Faith must be there, but it must be more. It must inspire action. Throughout his epistle to Jewish believers, James integrates true faith and everyday practical experience by stressing that true faith must manifest itself in works of faith. 

Someone once said, " The tongue has no bones, but is strong enough to break a heart. So be careful with your words."  How true. If even James, the half brother of Jesus, affirmed this truth in his letter some 2000 years ago to Jewish believers dispersed in the face of difficulties, it's time we recognize the power of the tongue.
