What Shapes Your Voice?

Your voice isn’t simply the vibrational sound that comes out when you talk. It’s one of the most powerful aspects of who you are.

Proverbs 18:21 reveals the power of our voice: Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose. (MSG) This has immense implications for what we say—and for what others speak over us. 

It also has specific implications for your creativity. Your Eden voice doesn’t sound like anyone else because no one else has lived your story. It is designed by God and shaped by a unique convergence of things such as… 

  • Your early childhood experiences

  • How you experienced play

  • The scars of your story

  • What you’re drawn to

  • The effect you have on a room when you enter it…and leave it

  • Your level of curiosity, wonder, and awe for God

  • How easily you laugh at life…and yourself

  • How well you love others

  • How freely you cry—as well as what causes the tears

  • If your heart is alive or shut down

  • Whether your decisions are driven by fear or love

  • Who or what you give the power to validate or invalidate you.

Now, imagine tossing all of these ingredients into a cosmic blender. This unique concoction is your signature drink. Your one-of-a-kind voice that shapes your art. No one else has it or can duplicate it. 

So don’t keep this elixir bottled up. Don’t water it down. Keep it full-strength. And invite others to drink from it through what you create.
