Topic: The Manuscript (04/29/10)
My Inspiration

Through history we have known books to be the means of greater knowledge. The written word has become the path of exploration from earth to outer space. A way to visit places and not leave home. Man has been writing since time began and will continue.
The manuscript as we know it comprises itself of words the author pens. There is no two alike. Why? Each individual is different. In his wisdom God uniquely created man.
The words we use to form our thoughts can in turn be used to glorify God. In the beginning was the word. The Creator of the universe with the spoken word created the world. The manuscript’s existence has been with man since the beginning.
The Bible without a doubt is my inspiration. Without the Holy Spirit we would fall short of writing the words he has inspired us to write. There are sixty six books in the Bible and without inspiration they would not have existed.
The word of God is the ultimate Manuscript. Penned by men of such caliber who gave their lives as a living sacrifice. A manuscript that has endured adversity, been abused and lied about. Yet God’s word, his love letter to the world will endure until the end.
When it comes to exploring the definition of the manuscript it is a place of personal preference. We know words formed are words read. We know what we prefer to read and write. We are our own books waiting to be read. We are the manuscripts of today.

Thank you for a very interesting article. I agree 100% about the Bible being written by many different people but it is inspired by God Himself. Please leave a space between paragraphs. It makes for easier reading. Otherwise this is very well written. God bless.

Compact and meaningful. Really, really liked your last two sentences! And yes, it is amazing how we can all be so different. Remember to double space between paragraphs for easier reading :)

Would have liked a little more intrigue.

A very tidy and well-composed essay.
