We Have Seen His Glory

Jesus Is Lord
Victory in Jesus
Live in the Light

John 1:6-14

The Message (MSG)

^6-8 There once was a man, his name John, sent by God to point out the way to the Life-Light. He came to show everyone where to look, who to believe in. John was not himself the Light; he was there to show the way to the Light.

^9-13 The Life-Light was the real thing:
    Every person entering Life
    he brings into Light.
He was in the world,
    the world was there through him,
    and yet the world didn’t even notice.
He came to his own people,
    but they didn’t want him.
But whoever did want him,
    who believed he was who he claimed
    and would do what he said,
He made to be their true selves,
    their child-of-God selves.
These are the God-begotten,
    not blood-begotten,
    not flesh-begotten,
    not sex-begotten.

¹⁴ The Word became flesh and blood,
    and moved into the neighborhood.
We saw the glory with our own eyes,
    the one-of-a-kind glory,
    like Father, like Son,
Generous inside and out,
    true from start to finish.

For Reflection

God became flesh and dwells among us as Jesus Christ.  Look into the eyes of a believer.  There you will see God. look into the lives of the righteous, there you will see Christ.  Walk among the faithful, there you will find the Spirit.  

Pray

that you will always remember that God is with you; Christ walks beside you and the  Spirit guides you.
