Changing Nouns to
Verbs…
a spiritual exercise?
"And as my very essence is a verb!' she continued, "I
am more attuned to verbs than nouns. Verbs such as
confessing, repenting, living, loving, responding,
growing, reaping, changing, sowing, running, dancing,
singing, and on and on. Humans, on the other hand,
have a knack for taking a verb that is alive and full of
grace and turning it into a dead noun or principle that
reeks of rules: something growing and alive dies. Nouns
exist because there is a created universe and physical
reality, but if the universe is only a mass of nouns, it is
dead. Unless 'I am! there are no verbs, and verbs are
what makes the universe alive."

God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM.
This is what you are to say to the
Israelites: `I AM has sent me to you.'"
Ex 3: 14
The Word became flesh and made
his dwelling among us. We have
seen his glory, the glory of the One
and Only, who came from the
Father, full of grace and truth.
[John 1:14]
The wind blows wherever it
pleases. You hear its sound, but
you cannot tell where it comes
from or where it is going. So it is
with everyone born of the Spirit."
[John 3:8]
What about changing
some of your nouns to
