I REFUSE the lie that my voice doesn't matter. IT IS WRITTEN that when I open my mouth, wisdom and kindness flow because that's who I am in Christ. I am not defined by who listens but by whose voice I carry—my Father's. IT IS WRITTEN that out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks, and Christ dwells in my heart. I am a branch connected to Jesus, the Word made flesh, so my words carry His life. The BARAK blessing means I am blessed when I speak and what I say carries Heaven's authority.
