Using a series of analogies, James notes the relatively small tongue has oversized power. One's tongue can utter evil one moment and seemingly praise God in the next (3:9-10).

Some uncomfortable truths even illuminate what one has been worshiping and reorient one to God. Despite the tongue's power, God's relentless love can overcome the harshest human speech.
