Words are ideas and ideas move the world. For good or for ill. That is the premise of the movie "The Great Debaters." It's a moving movie. I watched it two days in a row just to squeeze the marrow from the bone.
Enchanted, engrossed, enraptured, ravished...by words, by ideas. By The Word
Why do I frequently post Professor Dallas Willard excerpts? Because his words make my heart ache with longing. In the hope that some who are thirsty will gravitate to the possibility of abundance like a compass needle to north.
I well recall the stirrings of my own heart towards the hope that I could live “with the gleam of a better country in my eye." The flambeau was words.
So for all who are thirsty and hungry drink deeply or at least believe in the power of words.
Don’t think for a moment that Americanized Christianity is remotely close to all there is. It is not. Listen...again.
“In Jesus was life and the life was the light of men.” (John 1:4 NAS)
Believe in the power of words. Specifically One Word who became flesh and dwelt among us. His is the Voice.
