Sommario/riassunto

Words -- they are not just an important part of our lives, but are the core to our total being. We rarely stop to think about them, how we use them or misuse them, just as we seldom stop to think about our breathing. Words come and go like inhaling and exhaling. But where would our lives, culture, or world be without words? The answer lies in Genesis 1:2. "And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep." Our world would be without form and void. In short, we would be nothing. However, in verse 3, we find the first recorded "words" spoken by God. And God said, "Let there be light:



and there was light." These four simple words spoken by the Creator changed the rest of eternity. By simply speaking these words, He changed darkness into light, which allowed life to be brought forth and set His master plan into motion. This book relates the author's experiences with God, and the important, but not always pleasant words He revealed.
