The Word - 72

  In talking with a friend a couple weeks ago, we stumbled upon a brief discussion of The Bible, Jesus and our general beliefs.  What i heard from this friend was something that i remember others saying in the past - that the Bible was merely a bunch of fictional stories and that Jesus was just another enlightened being.

There was a sadness in my heart at hearing this and i realized that who i am now is wholly different - a new creation from who i was.  The sadness was because of the emptiness i knew was in the heart of this friend for not knowing the truth of What and Who The Word truly means.  I have come to Know Jesus and Know The Bible as Life - plain and simple.  It is hard to put into words because the experiences that i have been blessed with are so deep and so filling - bone deep enough to take your breath away. 

i pray this day that the Holy Spirit anoints those that do not know Jesus, those that take the Bible as just another story book, and that this beauty is revealed to them as The Living Word of a Living God.  In Jesus and in His Word we find our purpose - layer upon layer revealing more and more of the Love He has for us.

Be Blessed - Be Strong!!!
