Inspiring Words Knight Vision

Words are like windows they give us insight into another’s perspective. When God uses a word, we can see things the way he does. God knows how life works because he created it for us, for our benefit, and our enjoyment starting now and into eternity. Joining me for a few minutes a day can help you see life the way God does. I want to look at not all the words in the Bible but some of the words starting at the beginning. I hope you will join me on this journey.
