I think everyone is familiar with the type of person that loves to talk... and talk... and TALK.
Well, the next time you roll your eyes (in your mind) with a patronizing smile on your face while listening to a talker. Be reminded that God is a talker that doesn't shut up.
Think about it... When you read the creation story in Genesis its like God made stuff just to talk too. And of ALL that he created the only things made in him image can talk. Trees can't do it, birds can't do it, bees can't do it.. not cat, nor dog or fleas.
But look at the power of spoken word... it has the ability to inspire, instruct and guide. It can build relationships and set boundaries. It can summon help or call for trouble. Even muzzled in silence our ability to speak, speaks loudly.
So what is our responsibility with this Godly trait? I say it is to be like God and talk, and talk, and talk. But if we really talk like God taks, we should have a lot to show for all the talking... just like our God does.
