The tongue is the smallest member

The tongue is the smallest member but does much for its size. Words are a divine gift and as such have great significance in the life of humanity. Because of their divine origin and the effect they have on our lives, they should be used with great caution. The word is an imprint of the Divine Word. The Word of God is a definitive image of His essence, the Only-begotten Son of God. Our words are not merely empty sounds but are a seal, the mark of the image of our soul. If we could combine all our words into a single entity, then in this entity, we would see our own personal image. To put it crudely—our words are us!
