Words … how many times have
I said that words are such feeble folk? They are
tiny droplets of dew trying to portray the
oceans of the globe … as I would try to use them
to describe this emotion … this living,
breathing entity within that we have but one
word for … LOVE!
It is like the first
utterance from the mouth of God … the “word”
that brought everything out of nothing, and
caused the most intricate design and delicate
beauty, the most intense silence of the total
vacuum of space, simultaneously with the most
dramatically explosive starburst or nova!
The calming gentle waltz of
the early morning mist across the warm, damp
meadow, simultaneously with the thundering crash
and spewing lava of the fiercest volcanic
eruption! These are “emotions”!
“Love” is the inspiration
that causes sudden spurts of emotional energy
and flashes of intellectual “lightning” …
broadening the horizons until there are no
boundaries… only endless possibilities.
love, true love, cannot be silenced or
stopped … it cannot be cancelled or killed … it
cannot be distracted, detoured or destroyed! For
“LOVE” is not a feeling! It is a creative word
of God which abides forever!
So, I guess I have been
wrong all along!
Words are tools, and tools
alone can do nothing, but in the hands of the
Master, they have the power of creative energy,
or of life and death!
I believe that God has
imparted to us who are the one piece of all His
creation that was specifically made in HIS
image, some of the same ability with words!
What we choose to say,
write, sing or even think has that same powerful
energy … not to “create” something from nothing,
but to breath life-giving inspiration, to
encourage and enlighten, to impact those around
us either positively or negatively … in essence
the power of life and death! (Pro. 18:21a)
No! Words are not feeble at
all! Choose yours well today!
