The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.”

In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God.

I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.

For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.
