Jesus is God's message. It wasn't a message contained in a book or given in a vision, or revealed on a mountain to only a watchful few. No, God's message was human flesh, bone, and blood. God's message came and lived among us. He faced our hardship, got our dirt between his toes, felt our disappointments, struggled with our temptations, suffered our treachery, and bled our blood. Yet living in our world, God's message brought us more than truth; he delivered us from death by God's grace.
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
— John 1:14
Dear Lrod, Thank you for inspiring godly men to give us your Scripture. May we always listen for your truth in all areas of our life. Most of all, we praise you for speaking your clearest, most profound, and most accessible message in Jesus. Because of Jesus, we know you love us, we know you have cleansed us, and we know we will share heaven with you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and may our gratitude be seen in the quality and character displayed in our life. In the Jesus name, Amen.
