The meaning of the word “word” a single distinct meaningful element of speech or writing, used with others (or sometimes alone) to form a sentence and typically shown with space on either side when written or printed.

I could not find how many times the word. “word’ appeared in the Bible.  However, I found this number staggering in The King James Authorized Bible there are 783,137 words. How did they craft such a masterpiece? How has it been cherished by so many for so long?

Now many of you know in my journey I started a word study on December 14, 2019. My friend Joann and I have identified and studied one word a day since that date. We researched meaning and scriptures. And then I have written something about the word. So far, I have written what was on my heart after studying these words. To date, we have clocked in approximately 687 words.  It’s been an incredible learning experience.

Words are one of the most powerful tools we have to communicate what we feel deep in our hearts. Once they are uttered they can speak to the heart of a beautiful love ❤or they can wound the heart 💔 far beyond any apology can repair.  We must learn to choose our words wisely. 

Have you ever wondered why in the Bible in the chapter (John 1:1) John wrote these very words? “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him;’ We see Jesus clearly from the beginning of time. 

If we just interchange the word “word" with "Jesus” it would read like this.  In the beginning, was Jesus, and Jesus was with God, and Jesus was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him;” This exercise is not any way trying to change the words and how they were written. It just helps me visualize this scripture and how masterfully it was written. Without the “word” life could not exist. 

According to Matthew Henry (1662–1714) in his commentary, Jesus is called the "Word" in this opening verse because He was the Son of God sent to earth to reveal his Father's mind to the world.

Without the word, we would not be able to communicate with our Creator.. or each other.  We would live in silence…. We could not hear our children's first words. We could not hear the words I LOVE YOU. We could not hear our Heavenly Father's voice. Words are powerful. Words are life… words live in our hearts. Use them to share life and love.

It's Him, It's always Him.

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14

There are 8,674 different Hebrew words in the Bible, 5,624 different Greek words, and 12,143 different English words in the King James Version.

“To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek him the greatest adventure; to find him, the greatest human achievement.”― St. Augustine of Hippo

Five years ago to date... I embarked on the most amazing journey... It has been filled with the wonderment of a child. I was placed on a fast-track learning experience that I did not choose. I am still perplexed about why or how it happened?? I did not have much of a religious background? So why? One day I asked Him why me?? And the answer I received was “ Why not you??” 

I am not special by any stretch of the means. I had no prior hardships like many testimonies that I have heard... I had no darkness looming in my past or present to speak of. I would be considered in many circles to be knocking at the door of the so-called golden years of life... I feel I fell into the better late than never crowd.. 

However I did learn that it is never too late to find a love that makes us reach for more, it’s a love that is beyond this world.. and difficult to contain. He touched my life, set my heart ablaze, and turned my dormant soul into motion... 

In 1,800 days we have created a blog to share His word. We have hit almost 41k worldwide views. He helped me find my voice... our podcast is almost 3, years old. We have touched 36 counties and 460 cities... I literally crawled out of my shell and opened my heart for the world to see..(HIM).. And if that was not enough He guided my eyes and my hands to search for His face through art. 

I have exposed my vulnerable heart and have experienced the growing pains to prove it... He has guided my steps, kept me safe, and wiped many tears. He has loved me through the process. The internet gave me the platform to share Him on a much larger scale than I ever dreamed possible!! 

(Matthew 19:26) 

I can only pray that in the course of my adventure with Elohim that perhaps you have been touched by His LOVE in some way.. I have not shared my love for Him for monetary gain. I share it with you because He gave me the gift of “His LOVE” to share... 

Every year on this date I place ribbons on the trees where He touched my soul... So if you see beautiful green trees with purple ribbons swaying in the soft summer breeze you will know that is where love fell from heaven into my soul...

And my life will never be the same!! Because... He loved me first!!!

1 John 4:19 

Wishing you a day filled with His abundant love! 

I am a work in progress … and yes He still WOWs me…

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" from William Shakespeare's

See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. 1 John 3:1 

Meaning of bitter (of people or their feelings or behavior) angry, hurt, or resentful because of one's bad experiences or a sense of unjust treatment 

The word bitter is in the Bible 218 times...

If it seems to you that I have been distant and I have not been writing and posting as often ... your right... does the word aloof come to mind??? There is a reason driving my mood. I have been in process of moving from one city to another. 

The last word I shared on my podcast two weeks ago was destiny ...  I do believe I am on a  destiny train and God is my conductor...  I am not sure where this road will take me. I can only trust Him with each new chapter. 

An unprompted opportunity fell in our laps to move. We currently enjoyed living in Spring Hill, TN. 

However many of you know that my Holy Spirit encounter happened in a city by the name of Triune.  Now color me surprised the new location is in TRIUNE, TN.   Ahh, destiny ...To further share,  I like many did not even know what the word Triune meant???

To my surprise, I discovered it means Trinity... Why do we ever doubt that God is in control??? ... 

I am in the home in Spring Hill where many spiritual things happened to me... It will always hold my Triune heartfelt memories because it’s where I fell in love with God!!  

It's there He gently guided me on the most amazing spiritual journey of my life. He introduced me to His beautiful Son and His very breath we know as the Holy Spirit spoke words of love to my soul..

At the moment I fell in love with Him I thought who does that? Who falls in love with God?  And I felt that many of my friends and family would think I she is losing her mind... 

A lot of understanding and growth happened since that beautiful day... And I found out that many people fall in love with God.. I was just too new to this spiritual gift to know it. 

I can tell you this is a bittersweet moment because I am leaving this location behind to return to where He loved me first..... This new location is on the very same lonely road in Triune, Tn. where He touched my soul for the very first time...  What an amazing moment in time... 

And if you still think I am losing my mind... I can only pray you to find Him..  because there is nothing on this earth that can compare... 

All life, All Love begins with 

Him... the beautiful part of this journey with my Triune Loves is there is no end ... 

I am trusting Him.. to show me the way through this next adventure... 

It’s Him, It’s always Him. 

In your love you kept me from the pit of destruction; you have put all my sins behind your back. Isaiah 38:17

“God loves you more in a moment than anyone could in a lifetime.” Anonymous

Meaning of the word one: being a single unit or thing

The word ‘One’ appears 6621 occurrences in 13 translations. 

One... are we alone? Are we set apart? Is there more? Or do we singularly travel life?? 

I do believe our Heavenly Father made us complex creatures. Our mind tries to tell us we are one and our mind is in control ... However,  I do believe there is more to us than the mind would like to reveal... We have our body and our soul... We are 3 parts of the oneness that God created. 

When I peel this concept back. And I look at scripture Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. It makes me question this ... I believe many think it's our physical image He was speaking of? 

But when I examine this with my soul ... I gained a different perspective... The mind is the creator, the thinker, the decision-maker... The body is the human form. And the spirit is the Soul... Thus giving us the concept of Mind, Body, and Soul... 

When we look to the oneness of God the Father we have His amazing Mind, creator of all things. The Body is Jesus the Human Part of God. And the Holy Spirit is His beautiful spirit, where His heart and Love dwells... He is one just as we are one ...  The number One has many amazing facets that make up a beautiful complex miracle of life.   

Now to complicate things just a little ... when we become believers He sends His Spirit to dwell within us. To be our comforter our teacher and 

and to share Himself on an intimate level with His Children...    

So now when we look at our Mind, Body, and Soul just a little further ... we have a unique oneness with God... we call this very part of God the Holy Spirit... It’s here that we feel that oneness with our Heavenly Creator.  He is the most fascinating beautiful 3N1’s we will ever have the privilege to (try) to know... Wow !!! 

It’s Him, it’s always Him!   

There is no other He is the ONE. 

1 Corinthians 6:17-20 New International Version (NIV) 17 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit.

I Am One - Sandra McCracken feat. Citizens (Official Lyric Video)

"Life is the first gift, love is the second, and understanding the third." ~ Marge Piercy...

The nature of something's ingredients or constituents; the way in which a whole or mixture is made up: 
"the social composition. 
A work of music, literature, or art:

The word composition is in the Bible approximately 6 times.

When we look at the word composition my mind and heart traveled to what composes God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit? What composes man? Mind, Body, and Soul?  What parts are there for a song? The verse, the chorus, and the bridge… The common denominator is the number three… 

Is this number (three) our secret connection to God’s universe? When I went to discover more about this amazing number this is what I found.  

“The number 3 biblically represents divine wholeness, completeness, and perfection. If there ever was a desire to highlight an idea, thought, event, or noteworthy figure in the Bible for their prominence, the number 3 was used to put a divine stamp of completion or fulfillment on the subject’. 

And this made perfect divine sense… Our Triune is Wholeness, Completeness, and Perfection and It does not get any more amazing than that. But then you see this in the scriptures:

“So God created man in His own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." Genesis 1:27. 

You see, He sees us as whole, complete, and perfect. Even when we come to Him broken, battered, and bruised. And then He created beautiful music… I do believe He created music whole, complete, and in perfect harmony as a way to speak to our souls. 

Do you ever wonder why music moves our hearts? 

It's His composition, It’s His creation, It’s His perfect circle of life. 

When there is three… <3 divine love happens… And that is true wholeness, completeness, and perfection.  

It’s them, Its always them. The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.

And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD. Exo 30:37

A musical composition by David, which he sang to the Lord concerning a Benjaminite named Cush. O Lord my God, in you I have taken shelter. Deliver me from all who chase me! Rescue me! Psalms 7:1

There are 20 Bible Verses about Anticipation. 

The meaning of anticipation: expectation or prediction of something. 

Waiting on God can be the most amazing spiritual experience. However, it can and does tax our patience!!  However, if we can lean into His teachings, and learn to let Him lead, He will guide us on the most amazing spiritual journey of our lives. 

We will anticipate the unknown with wonder. There can be such an unusual range of emotions. There is a peace that will engulf our senses. There is such an excitement about His mystery. There is a yearning in our soul. There is a feeling of love in the deepest chambers of our hearts.

To walk with Him can bring anticipation of living life in each beautiful moment. I look forward to each sunrise. I look forward to each full illuminating moon. I look forward with great anticipation to get lost in His presence... 

Anticipation is truly making me wait... But I know with every fiber of my being He is so worth the wait... ❤ I will forever wait on Him. (I love discovering His mystery its the most amazing wonder we will ever pursue.) 

It’s Him, It’s always Him 

There is so much to discover. I do believe we will never be able to know everything about Him in this lifetime. 

Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Joshua 1:8

Bible Verses From KJV  / Sinner's Prayer

Inspiring Music: Carly Simon - Anticipation

    You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. Deuteronomy 6:5

Meaning of adoration deep love and respect. worship; veneration. In the Bible Adoration is respect, reverence, strong admiration, or devotion in a certain person, place, or thing. The term comes from the Latin adōrātiō, meaning "to give homage or worship to someone or something".

There are approximately 21 verses about the word adoration.

When we look at our world the word adoration seems to be a skewed practice. And it can be seen across genders, cultures, and religious boundaries.  What do we adore? Is it those favorite pair of beautiful stylish pumps? Is it that sports figure that clinches the win for your home team? Is it that beautiful building with state of the art technology we call a worship center? Wow, when I dive into what we as humans adore this list can go on for miles. 

I believe the word adore can be closely connected to the word love.  When we fall in love with someone, we have a tendency to adore even the most irritating traits. We may even find them cute, where others see them as character flaws. 

So, I will ask you what do you adore? Are we truly adoring what really brings value to our lives ?? Let’s create a checklist. 

Does it give you peace? Does it give you hope? Does it give you a love beyond anything you have ever known? It’s it available day and night 365 days a year? Rain or shine? Will it stay with you when you are afraid? Will it show you how to LIVE? Will it deliver you from the pits of despair? Will it cheer your victories? Will it offer a hand to hold? Will it have no end date ?? Will it share the secret to living life to its fullest? 

Well, hmm I have found such a person and I adore Him. I adore His character. I adore Him because He Loves me as much as He loves you. 

I adore His face, His loving nature, His kindness, His compassion… I adore Him and my list is truly endless! However, I must say I have yet to find any character flaws. He truly is perfect. Others before me have tried, and have failed. I challenge you to find out for yourself. Because I am confident you will fall in love and adore Him too. 

Its Him, It's always Him !!

For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5

And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!” Revelation 5:13

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this, all people will know that you are my disciples if you have a love for one another.” John 13: 34:35

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples if you love one another. John 13:34-35 NIV
