The words that I speak have the power to heal or to harm. If I am to be that place where God shines through, then my life must be lived from within out--a celebration of the Truth in the here and now.

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
Isaiah 55:11
