Our Scripture reading today is Hebrews 11:1-3.
 
Verse 3, "Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."
 
God said and it was so.  There weren't any materials to begin with and then God made the world.  By faith, we believe that God made the world by speaking it into existence.  Our faith is anchored in the Word of God.  Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning, God created..."  This first verse in our Bibles tells how everything got started.  If there was a big bang, it was the sound of God's voice saying, "Let there be light!" 
 
I am thankful for the Word of God that lives and abides forever.  Many prophecies have already been fulfilled.  Many truths have already been proven.  Many principles have already and continue to change lives!  We can confidently place our faith in the Word of God.
