Looking for the words

So what's with the title?

"Looking for the words" is the title I have chosen for the blog.
What?
It has a number of dimensions to make me choose this:
  1. One of the most amazing parts of the Bible is John 1, where we are told:
    WEB: John Chapter 1

    [1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made through him. Without him was not anything made that has been made. [4] In him was life, and the life was the light of men. [5] The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
    So, what has been translated as "Word" in our English Bibles clearly is a viable description of Jesus - the most important person in the universe, and the reason for our existence.
  2.  So what is with the plural words in my title? Well I am certainly not suggesting there is more than one God. No there is only one God. Instead it is that it is also true that I am not great at expressing myself with words - a constant frustration, so I will be looking for words to clearly express what I want to say.
  3. As a teacher, I want to look for words that will help students understand what a wonderful universe Jesus has created for us. This page will be a way to explore that.
