So The WORD

Became Human

And Made His Home Among Us.

Scripture

John 1

1 In the beginning the Word already existed.

    The Word was with God,
 
    and the Word was God.

² He existed in the beginning with God.
 
³ God created everything through him,
    and nothing was created except through him.

⁴ The Word gave life to everything that was created,
    and his life brought light to everyone.

⁵ The light shines in the darkness,
    and the darkness can never extinguish it.

¹⁴ So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.

¹⁸ No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.

Observation

I like the way the Message shares John 1:14, “The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood.”

Christmas … I never grow tired of the Christmas story. Only those who know Christ can experience Christmas.

For most of the world it is a busy, expensive time of the year. It is at best for those who are not Christ followers a time to be with their families and open gifts.

For me, this morning as I look at our Christmas tree and listen to Christmas music and read God’s word, it is a time to reflect on the One that makes this season so special. His name is Jesus! 

Application

I will invite people to our Christmas Eve service. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, give me the opportunity to move someone closer to You during this Christmas season. Help me to be sensitive to those around me. I pray for my family. Help them all to know and celebrate the Christ of Christmas.
