The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.

God's Word Will Pass Away
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Jesus has been with God from the beginning...St. John teaches us that in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...Jesus is the Word, the very Word of God...He is The Path for life...
Our lives are a like a story as we walk along our own path of life...You are a child of God, and your path is unique from everyone else's path...We need a good Light to walk this path...God's Word is the lamp unto our feet...The Light from this lamp is the heart's anchor for our soul...Without this Light we get off the path and can lose our way, and darkness can set in...But the Light shines through all darkness...The lamp and this Light give us direction for a path to a Great Kingdom -where there will always be Light...This Light through the Holy Spirit, illuminates our heart and makes our path more joyful and we find more Truth...The Light shows us the Way...Following the Light gives our life a purpose...The Light can take us not only to some and more Truths, but to all Truths...
Hope in Jesus, is this Light and this anchor for our very soul...When your feel the hope of this anchor, let it shine so others will see it...This shining, positive path gets somehow disclosed to others...Though I do not know how, others take note...You understand it is coming from the glory of God...And from small seeds from others watching you, over time they too will see a glimmer of this Light that you have...This seed is God's Word coming from the Lamp, from the Light, from the Holy Spirit, and is walking with you down your path of life...Very rarely, do seeds get planted and watered in good soil and sprout in an instance or on that very day...The seed takes patience and time to bear fruit...But over time with this patience and proper watering (we can over water our plants, as much as we can under water our plants) that which was planted becomes concealed and gets disclosed and sprouts into harvest...And once it sprouts, over some more time, it will begin to grow...
Eventually heaven and earth will pass away...But after our path in this life, the Light will remain forever...The Light will always shine through the darkness, and His Word will never pass...We will not need then candles nor the light of the sun anymore , for the Lord God will give us light....And the Father and Son will reign for ever and ever...There Will Be No More Darkness...
