The Word Made Flesh
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." - John 1:1
Have you ever pondered how the infinite God could become finite, how the Creator could become creation? The mystery of Christ's incarnation stretches our minds beyond human comprehension, yet it stands as the cornerstone of our faith.
When John declares Jesus as "the Word," he reveals something profound: Jesus is God's ultimate self-expression. Just as our words reveal our thoughts, Jesus reveals the Father's heart. He isn't merely a good teacher or prophet – He is God Himself, stepping into His own creation.
Consider how the Word "was made flesh, and dwelt among us" (John 1:14). The Greek word for "dwelt" literally means "to pitch a tent." Just as God's presence dwelt in the tabernacle among Israel, Jesus pitched His tent in human flesh to dwell among us.
Today's Application:
Read Colossians 1:15-20 slowly. List every divine attribute of Christ you find. Let these truths deepen your worship.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, open my eyes to see You more clearly as both God and man. Help me grasp the magnitude of Your condescension in becoming human. Amen.
