Into the Fire

Passionate thoughts about the world of writing and the Power of God

Words are used to describe, to inspire, to dictate, explain, and intimidate. Authors use words to paint pictures. Certain portraits are stark, others dense and complicated, still others delicate and tender. Today I'm going to give you some "w" words which strike up images for me. If you like, tell me what emotions these w words invoke in you. I happen to like these w words.

Wallow

Wail

Weird

Whine (Whiner)

Wench

Whistle

Wonder

Wicked

Wallop

Do you have some favorite w words?

 

Father, thank you for communication, especially from you. You clarify, encourage, uplift, discipline, and use words we can all understand. Thank you. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

    Well done, Brenda. Yeah, weary is good. As in tired to the bones, physically and emotionally.
