God and His Word预览

God’s Word is described as a light! Our lives can sometimes seem a bit like walking in the dark; we don’t always know what’s ahead or what path to take. When we don’t know where we’re going or what’s ahead, we can trust God and His Word. It’s a lamp unto our feet and a light to our path. God’s Word illuminates the dark parts of our life, the things about ourselves that we need to change and grow to be more like Jesus.

Jesus tells a story about seed which we can read in Luke chapter 8. He tells of a farmer who goes out to sow some seed. Some of the seed falls onto the path, where it then gets trampled on, and birds come and eat it. Some of the seed falls onto rocky soil, where once the seed grew, they died quickly because they didn’t receive enough moisture. Some of the seed fell on good soil and grew and grew and grew until it produced a crop a hundred times more than what was sown.

Jesus says that the seed is the Word of God. When the seed falls on good soil, it doesn’t get taken away, its roots grow deep, and troubles and worries do not choke it. When the seed falls on good soil, it grows and produces life. God’s Word makes a difference in our everyday life. The Bible is like a sword, living, active and sharp. The Bible is like a mirror, reflecting the truth that brings freedom. The Bible is like bread, nourishing us and helping us grow strong. The Bible is like light, shining a path for our feet to tread. The Bible is like a seed; sown into good soil, it can produce life.

I believe God’s Word is true.
