Haynes Jr. “The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.” - [Genesis 11:6]( I recently went into a store to purchase a duffle bag, and because of the size of the store, I could not find it. I asked a clerk for help locating the duffle bag aisle, but I discovered he did not speak English. The language barrier between us created a problem because we could not understand each other. He eventually found another employee who could understand, and once we were on the same page speaking the same language, he led me right to what I was looking for. In [Genesis 11]( we encounter the Tower of Babel. This is a remarkable event that illustrates what can happen when there is unity, a common language, and a common purpose. God acknowledged when people work together with a shared language and goal, nothing is impossible. This profound verse teaches us valuable lessons about the significance of unity, communication, and the limitless possibilities that arise when we align ourselves with God's purposes.  [CONTINUE READING →](            You May Also Like:        [7 Hurdles Parents of Teens Face and How to Get Over Them](  Alicia Searl Remember that under that tough exterior, they really do love you, and this season will pass.
