Why Words Matter

Описание: We don't remember much when we're infants. But as we get a few years older and as our brains develop, so does our ability to convey the thoughts and emotions of our minds and spirit. Memory starts to be retained when we start to process and attempt to communicate and use language.

Words therefore express to others what our interior wants to convey and infancy helps progress us toward using words and being able to express ourselves.

This relates to the Christian life because God created the world through speaking it into being. He also communicates to us through words (Scripture) and by becoming "the Word" incarnate (Jesus).
Through words, God communes with us and we with Him.
