More than words

Many of us haven’t had a word of encouragement, nor a validation, neither privilege, entitlement, prerogative, empowerment, endorsement, inheritance, trust fund, bootstrap, leg up, or even a handout - to give us the edge that many of our associates and colleagues have enjoyed and partaken of (some since birth and for generations).  Those are a lot of words, with much more meaning behind them; and even more clout and influence that most do not have.  Unfortunately, those before us didn’t receive those words either.  The only words that were passed down were poverty, funeral bills and an unhealthy sense of helplessness and despair.  Many feel impotent and dysfunctional.  We only have a legacy of “find your way to get through, by just barely getting by”, nevertheless, regardless of how powerful those words seem to be, all of those words have to bow down at the Word of the Father, but our responsibility is to believe his report and trust in his promise(s).  (John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.) One word from God can produce the existence of a life that exceeds our understanding.
