"Let the words of my mouth, and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer." Psalm 19:14. God puts a high priority on thoughts and words. Since we are His children, we need to be doers of the Word.
It is very important to be able to use language successfully in all areas of our life whether it is in thinking, listening, speaking, reading, or writing. Most of all we need to understand God's message to us and secondly be able to acommunicate it to others.
