Letter X (October 24, 2026)
I had to be creative in expressing my gratitude to the Lord my God with the Letter X. This is because, English has only a few words beginning with the Letter X. So I decided to use words from my native language of Ewe (pronounced e-ve), a language spoken in Ghana, West Africa. In addition, I used one made up word from English.
I thanked my God for being XEXEAME WORLA, (The Maker of the world), XORLOR (Friend), XORLA (Savior), "Mia dela tso XAXAME" (Deliverer from trouble), for XORSE (Faith), for XORSETORWO (Believers), for XORLORWO (Friends), "Yo XADAME si wotor" (His side that was pierced), for being XCELLENT (a made-up word for excellent).
