Summary: The human voice is wonderful thing, a dog can bark, a bird can chirp, but a man can talk,for God has given him the wonderful gift of speech.
The human voice is wonderful thing, a dog can bark, a bird can chirp, but a man can talk,for God has given him the wonderful gift of speech. With this gift, man can pray, he can sing praises to God, and he can preach the unsearchable riches of God.
But, have you ever thought about the voice of Jesus. Revelation says his voice was like "the sound of many waters." He spoke from boats, from mountains, from roadsides, from the temple, from homes and even from the cross.
But most important than the sound of His voice is what He said with voice, He spoke eternal truths.

Many years ago near the royal English residence on the Isle of Wight stood several homes for the poor and aged. A missionary, visiting some of the elderly people one day, asked a lady, "Does Queen Victoria ever call on you here?" "Oh, yes," was the answer, "Her Majesty frequently comes to see us." Then, wondering if the woman was a Christian, the missionary inquired, "Does the King of kings ever visit here?" The lady immediately gave him a happy, knowing smile and replied, "No, sir, He doesn't visit here -- praise God, He lives here. That's why we're so richly blessed!"
