Why Is This Important? …
How Can These Words Help Haiti?
Because WORDS really do MATTER… in fact, words create matter.
Words ARE the most powerful tool we have. Give it just a little thought and realize that ALL things began with a thought – but thoughts will always die unless they turn into WORDS or actions.
The basis of my truth is some ancient proverbs and writings from the Bible. Paraphrased examples:
- Job 22:28 – You decide and decree (speak) a thing, and it shall be established (done) for you…
- Proverbs 18:21 – Death and Life are in the power of your tongue…
- Matthew 12:37 – you are justified and acquitted by your own words and you are condemned and sentenced by your own words.
- James 3:2 – …if you do not offend in speech [never say the wrong things], you are fully developed, perfect and able to control your whole body…

Dr. Bill Winston, nationally acclaimed Author, Founder & Chairman of the Board of the Joseph School of Business, Chairman of the Board of Covenant Bank and other businesses, states: “Everything that IS - is founded on WORDS.

In his Foreword to the book Aspire, Stephen Covey, best-selling Author, states:
“It all started with words. …Words are, and always have been, the creative force of the universe. …words contain an inherent power, a force capable of lighting one's paths and hoped-for horizons. Used correctly, words are the first building blocks for success and inner peace.”
