Study #1: YOD

THE LETTER YOD

This is the smallest but most potent of the Hebrew alphabets and the most frequently mentioned.

For despite its size, it is the core center of every other letter.

Even how it is written ( in 3 letters ) supports the aforesaid.

It starts with its namesake YOD shaped like a top curved edge of a page.

Then the second letter VAV is a lengthening of the leg.

The third letter DALET is the horizontal lengthening of its top.

Thus like a dot of Creation, it moves downward to touch the base of earth. Then it lengthens to depict a door to the heavenly realm.

Heavenly Father, You are teaching us something significant here by the very shape of YOD as in how it is spelt and written. Since Jesus upholds the world by the Word of His power ( Hebrews 1:3 ), and YOD is part of very Hebrew letter and hence word, YOD symbolizes Your very presence in all things – the divine spark that lights up Life itself in all Your creation by Your Omnipresence.
