My 50 Favorite Words of All Time

By January 1, 2012Culture, Funny

Recently I was in a store and heard a little boy yell, “Mom…or Dad” across the store. I was reminded how special those words are every time I hear them.

Then I started to reflect. I like words, but some words just have a more special ring to them. I have some favorite words. Whenever I hear them, I feel warmer inside.

Not necessarily in order of importance…

Here are my 50 favorite words:

God
Jesus
Mom
Dad
Thanks
Love
Wife
Golly
Friends
Family
Faithful
Grandchildren
Grace
Husband
Sunshine
Sister
Marriage
Rest
Food
Brother
Chocolate
Caring
Christmas
Easter
Cross
Bible
Health
Life
Heaven
Blessing
Victory
Beloved
Sunny
Smile
Laughter
Eternity
Security
Saved
Grandparent
Sorry
Vacation
Forgiveness
Giggle
Tickle
Home
Heart
Memories
Books
Music
Ocean

I’m sure I’ve missed one or two. 🙂

    The lists so far have been quite comprehensive, hard to add to them, but what comes to mind?
    Books
    Praise
    Share
    Learn
    Movie
    Teach
    History
    Exercise
    Grow
    Space
    Not an extensive list, but they are words that make up what I am. I have always wanted more for the people around me, for them to actually understand what is said, not just memorize. To be able to build a life with what they hear.

    Forgiven, redeemed and of course football!

    Hello Ron and Friends.

    Wow. Strong words with pronounced meaning, especially taken one at a time with consideration. I could only add a couple off hand:

    Volunteer

    Volunteer because I believe it is one of the strongest words to illicit good will.

    Here is one not so obvious:

    Rainbow

    Because it is a sign from Him. One more as He set this down for us also:

    Stars

    As the "Gospel In The Stars" denotes – also Signs from Him.

    Two more come to mind that are words to think on:

    Thankful
    Mindful

    As in be thankful for His blessings.
    And be mindful of what you do, say and project in His Name.

    OH – perhaps one more:

    Spirit

    As denoted in His Will.

    More words than I thought I'd come up with and certainly not any that mean more than any of those already presented. Words are important for many reasons but when we consider what is most important about words it is probably His Word and how He managed to communicate that to us.

    Happy New Year to the great Folks here, and around the world. 🙂
