The Pen

The Pen

There used to be an old saying that went like this, “The pen is mightier than the sword.” I think it’s a time proven statement and very self-explanatory. I remember it being included in history books and such, and usually within texts written on early America, the founding fathers, and their ‘pens’ of influence. The people who held pens in those by-gone eras were much fewer in number - gave deep thought to the word power that ebbed from the pen and held great accountability to the content of their messages, relying heavily on God’s statutes and truths. The result was a nation built on steadfast values and strengths.
