The Word of God is a Sword
My first night in Bolivia was an exciting one, as I was welcomed to the country by numerous different species. After a four-hour delay in Santa Cruz, a member of the local church picked me up and dropped me off at the Bishop’s house, which I was told I had to myself. However, I was soon greeted by three friendly dogs and one cat, who kept me company before retreating to the kitchen. Thinking they were the last new friends I would be making that evening, I went to the guest room to relax. Just as I was climbing into bed I saw something scurry across the floor. At first I thought it was a large spider, but on second glance I realized it was a SCORPION! Terrified, I decided to just leave it alone and hope that it wouldn’t come up into the bed and bother me. Luckily, I was on Skype at the time and my boyfriend coached my through killing the pest. Unfortunately, the only hardcover book I brought along with me was my gigantic Spanish-English Bible; therefore, I stood on the Word of God and used it as a sword and I am happy to report that the scorpion is very dead ☺
Hebrews 4:12 “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword…”
