The word of God is precious. It is a gem of unfathomable wealth. The word contains the very breath of God. It is the utterance of the Creator, the words of the Lord Most High. In its words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs, chapters, and books is the voice of the living God. The word is alive with the breath of the very Spirit that inspired the words at their writing. The word of God is a salve to raw and bleeding hearts. It is the answer to sin and suffering. The word of God is the ultimate story. The word is life and truth to those that will hear. It is good news to all mankind. The word preaches Jesus Christ, God become man, the substitution for our sins, our salvation and redemption. He is the Word, the beginning and end of all things. For and through Him were all things created. The word is the story of the Word, His death and resurrection. To Him be the glory forever and ever.

Green
Brendan James is one of my new favorite artists. His music and lyrics are unique and fresh, and so poetic. His song "Green" is my favorite...read, then listen and enjoy....(Be sure to check out his song 'The Sun Will Rise' as well)

Zeppelin never left her, never died or second guessed her painted on her body
The stars would never hurt her never lie never desert her painted on her body
She prayed to God when she was young after the storm a calm would come above her
I thought that I could be the one to part the clouds before the sun above her
Green reminds me of everything we did it blinds me
It rushes through my head it finds me close to you again
Green reminds me of everything we said it blinds me
It rushes through my head it finds me close to you again
Mother moves to town again holds her upside down again, said it’s nice to see her
Brendan now you’ve got to come she’s where I get my smile from, I’d like for to meet her
Andrea was pain and pride a step behind oh how she tried I loved her
And all she wore from head to floor were shades of green from our store I loved her
And all for me she cried
And all for love
In retrospect wish I could have said three words that night
Oh me, oh me, oh me
- Brendan James
