Words can hurt or cure


  Words are written symbols of human understanding. Words can hurt and words can heal! They have divided the world in some of the smallest and unique ways. These divisions have sometimes been destructive in catastrophic proportions.  The great wars of this world were all began over differing views of what particular words meant. At the same time peace was achieved through other words.
  Our Creator knows the importance of words. If humans all spoke the same language with the same meanings nothing will be impossible for them to do.
  Funny isn't it that the Creator does not want us to all speak the same language. At least that was the message of stories like the Tower of Babel. What would happen if we could return to a day when we all spoke the same language?
  First it would reduce the number of divisions in society. We would all have the same concept or belief in Our Common Creator. Hmmm? I wonder, of the present words and symbols which  might be the correct or closes one? Would it be a super human being: Thor? Zeus? Buddha? Confucius? Jesus? Etc. Would it be nature itself? Trees and birds? Breath of Life? Great Spirit? Holy Spirit? Etc.? Would it be the essence of what is good in life? Goodness? Peace? Ying and Yang? Love? Etc.?
  If it comes to a vote, I want to nominate my word Yah to be the accepted and common understanding among all the peoples. Yah cannot be comprehend in worldly terms. Instead it can only describe the personality of Yah as developed from the collected facts since the beginning of time by millions and millions of people.
  While my Yah is the sum total of the opinion of all beings, my Yah still is a distinct essence with known personalities. Yah caused this creation in order to develop we human beings. Humans that when they leave this world will be with Yah beyond our space and time.
   Yah knows it is extremely difficult for humans to really understand Yah’s true essence and the purpose of human life. Therefore Yah communicated these expectations was through specific human being through out the course of human history. This humans all were understood to have fully human and fully divine characteristics. Something common with all persons, who believe in my Yah.  
  All of the followers of Yah are fully human and fully divine. We are members of the kingdom beyond space and time. How we live out our lives will develop our role in that kingdom, where Yah is fully understood. For us this is the only true focus for human beings - to prepare for Yah’s eternal kingdom.
  Yes if the world all had my word and symbol for our Creator we would put Our Creator first in all things and love others as we love ourselves. We would avoid being people who elevate and worship rules and laws. We would avoid condemnation of any human being and demonstrate love, joy and peace in our lives so that others we be drawn to Yah, so they might find Our Creator. Our  actions would speak our faith.
  Yes it would be nice if we all spoke the same language and understood Our Creator in the same way. Oh well, some day we will see all of the Creator’s kingdom and speak the same language. Until then could we learn to translate a little better?
