Communication disorders
- People with communication disorders stammer when talking. They take a long time to pronounce one word.
- A person who stammers may find it more difficult to pronounce words if he or she is annoyed, nervous or afraid.
- In ( Matthew 9:32-33) we read that Jesus healed a man who could not speak.
- The man had an evil spirit that made him not talk.
- Jesus cast the evil spirit out of the man and the man was able to speak again.
How can we help those with communication disorders?
- We need to be considerate. We should not make fun of those with difficulty speaking especially when they are not able to pronounce some words.
- We also need to listen to them carefully and be patient with them.
- We need to be alert and exercise courtesy when interacting with them.
- We need to offer help where we can.
- We also need to encourage them so that they may be able to cope with their challenge.
