And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ ”
And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.
For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.
Happy Tuesday!
It is a beautiful sunny day here in Porter’s Lake
With a light sprinkling of fresh snow on the ground.
It is the first day of December!
A new month
A new start
Christmas is coming
Advent season is here.
This morning the Father whispered John 1 in to my spirit
What a gift of the Father
“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us”
Jesus Christ was sent to us as a baby, dwelling in human form
God as a baby
Precious and Holy
“And we beheld His glory”
The Glory of the Lord came down to earth to dwell among us.
What does Christmas really mean to you
When you think of Christmas where does your mind go
Where does your heart and spirit go?
There is nothing wrong with decorating, family and gifts,
BUT……your heart should be filled with the love of God and with graditude for the gift of Christmas, Jesus
Christmas points to the cross – where Jesus gave up His life so that we would have eternal life.
My family loves the Grinch cartoon
We watch it every year, together usually.
My favorite part is:
“And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow,
stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled ’till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.”
Christmas indeed, means so much more.
So this year,
Take the time to sit with the Father
Sit in relationship
Listen to His heart for you
And understand that He loved you sooooooooooooo much
He sent His only beloved Son for you
That He might walk in relationship with you.
Reach out this Christmas
Take the Hand of the Father
And begin to walk with Him.
And discover for yourself the MORE of Christmas!
Go forth and live and love!
