As we move closer to Christmas, the gospels tell the story. I love every nugget we can glean from reading them again and again. The wonder of the Word is that it is "alive, powerful, and sharper than a double-edged sword."
"The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone." -John 1:4
Creation came to life by "The Word." We see it in Genesis. "Elohim" literally speaks life. It is echoed in the Psalms. And, again in John. The Word gave life, and then His life brought light to everyone.
As we return to the manger for another Christmas celebration, who do we see? Immanuel? The Messiah? The newborn King?
Do we observe that God keeps his promises? God determines the timeline. He will not be hurried or delayed.
His life brought life to everyone.
Today, I am grateful for "The Word."
