A short spoken reflection (YouTube video by Hope Carpenter) exploring the practical power of spoken words. The speaker asks readers to imagine if everything they said literally came true, cites Proverbs 18:21 to assert that life and death are in the power of the tongue, and exhorts listeners to watch their speech because words can bring blessings or curses.

Chapters

What if everything we spoke came to pass? Words like, I'm about to die. I can't do this anymore. These kids are driving me crazy. Proverbs 18:21 says that death and life are in the power of the tongue. And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Listen. What we say matters. Our words bring blessings and curses into our life. And we've got to be more careful with our words. You have what you say. If you don't like what's going on in your life, maybe you need to evaluate what's coming out of your mouth.
