– to receive much more than respected.
I was seeking to hear the voice
– I found a person.
I was seeking guidance
– I found a Shepherd.
I was seeking the will of God
– I found friendship with the Son.
I was seeking understanding
– I found the life-giving Spirit.
To be somebody is to seek and find God
– who is LOVE – Eternal and Boundless!

–>

In the
beginning was the creative Word.

The creative
Word was with God

And the
Word was God.

The Word
proceeding from God

Is the only
Son of God.

He was in
the beginning with God,

Everything
was created through him.

Nothing,
not one thing, came into being without him,

He spoke,
and it was done.

He commanded,
and it stood fast.

The world
appeared at his word.

By faith we
understand that the whole universe

Is created
by the word of God.

By faith we
understand that the visible things

Came into
existence by the spoken word of God.

By faith we
are beginning to grasp something

Of the
power of the spoken word.[1]

The Word and the Spirit take me from weakness to strength

Through the mystery of the strong faith;

When I am weak, then I am strong!

Because the power of God comes to prominence and works best

When I see how helpless I am on my own.

Separated from Christ I can do nothing!

Separated from Christ I am lost!

But, Hallelujah; Christ came to me,

Christ found me and called me to himself.

Now nothing can separate me from God’s love.

Let thousand flowers blossom!
Let tens of thousand different plants flourish!
Let hundreds of thousand seeds sprout, and grow to become a vast forest!
Let the followers of Christ become numerous as the sand on the seashore.

Let the disciples of Christ fill the earth as the stars fill the winter-sky.
Let the believers excel in expressing love in practical and down to earth deeds.
Let the covenant community explode with creativity!
Let the church of Christ come to fullness!
