God's Word will not be hidden (Lk 8:17). You can be a cloud obscuring the light of God's Word, but the light will continue to shine (see Ps 119:105), and you will be blown away.
God's Word is irresistible (Jdt 16:14) for some people. While some resist God's Word, there are always others who accept it. It is always "living and effective" (Heb 4:12). God's Word always achieves the end for which it was sent (Is 55:11).
God's Word is unstoppable. "There is no chaining the word of God!" (2 Tm 2:9) Jesus, the Word of God, leads an unstoppable, victorious army (Rv 19:13ff).
God's Word is indestructible. Though heaven and earth pass away, God's Word will never pass away (Lk 21:33). It is "an indestructible seed...the living and enduring word of God" (1 Pt 1:23).
God's Word is revealed by the Church through "Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture" (see Catechism of the Catholic Church, 80). Put this Word on the lampstand of your life (Lk 8:16). Share God's Word. "When much has been given a man, much will be required of him" (Lk 12:48). "I charge you to preach the word, to stay with this task whether convenient or inconvenient" (2 Tm 4:2).
| PRAYER: | Father, may I read and share Your Word daily. |
| PROMISE: | "Whoever, therefore, among you belongs to any part of His people, let him go up, and may his God be with him!" –Ezr 1:3 |
| PRAISE: | Sharing the Word of God with her children, blesses not only them, but Margarita's grandchildren and great-grandchildren. |
