Tongue on The Roof
by MARGARET MACHARIA
Synopsis
The most powerful word is not what you say, but what you do not say before it is time.
There are battles you win not by drawing your sword, but by keeping it sheathed.
Someone has wronged you. You have every right to answer. And God says, Not yet.
David spared King Saul even though Saul was hunting him to death. Joseph waited in prison for a crime he did not commit. Jesus stood before Pilate and made no reply, not even to a single charge (Matthew 27:14, NIV).
Tongue on the Roof explores the discipline of silence while waiting for God's rescue.
Each chapter leads you through three questions:
What does the Word of God say?
Why is silence important here?
What victory is won?
Set a guard over my mouth, LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips. Psalm 141:3, NIV
