I wish I had time to read that whole topic there on speaking in tongues, but I don't. Maybe next week.. Anyway I have a question for you people.

I speak in tongues as part of my daily life. "Nevaghros Nekhai, Dehmara Kubarho... " when I get angry, frustrated, overly happy, sad, excited, surprised... thats what language I speak. Mostly people talk about speaking in tongues with more reverance. Why? As one person put it, "It is the least of the gifts". Well, I don't know about that, but anyway what does it all mean?

I know how to say at least one thing in that language that I know what means...

Least of your gifts?? no way!

Speaking in tongues is to edify you... a bit like charging your batteries. Do it daily!

Ah, but what does it mean?

As Paul wrote, he would rather us have understanding.
