To me, Jesus is The Word and The Word is Jesus. When I have a word from God on the issue of this life, I have the strength I need to go forward in that word. Also the Word from God, given by the Spirit of God, shows me what to do in the matter at hand. And the Word from God by the Spirit of God comforts me in difficult times.
The Word is everything to me ... I can't imagine living without The Word.
This Podcast contains specific examples of the Word brought to me by the Spirit of God, especially in difficult times.
