Voice and Tongue of Passion



Vox Point is a magazine I have just read. It upholds family values in a decidedly confused and deceived society.
Government is challenged in its blind
search to appease the forces of falsely
concealed agendas, purporting to be for the benefit of society, but actually being of benefit to a minority of loudly spoken activists.

I am challenged that if I have a tongue in my head and a word in my mind that is true, then I must voice it wherever I can. I need to verbally stand for the protection of the innocent.


I look at my grand daughters and can see the fun in their eyes and the innocent certainty that all is well in their world.
Yet there are people who are robbing our children of this security of innocence. In the name of freedom of speech, or knowledge, or entertainment, the air waves of TV and computer based media, are loaded with images, words, sounds, geared to deafen the ear to the voice of reason, goodness and truth.
Who will stand for truth? Who will stand for the protection of the
innocent? Parents rise up. Grandparents rise up. Put filters on your
computers. Keep your computer in a visible place. Supervise their friendships
and play. Protect them from predators. Stand against laws that liberate and exalt evil.
I read this in the Bible's book of James. ..the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. The tongue is also a fire, a world of evil......
The tongue gives shape and words to the voice. The tongue is the instrument of the mouth, which speaks out of the heart. So where does that leave me, us?
But my tongue is discipled to Living Truth. It is truly a fire, but not for evil. I have put my tongue to action, used my voice today to cry out that all who are part of the Truth, the Eternal Truth, should use their tongues as a great fire for good. Voice your knowledge and understanding wherever it can be heard.
