John 1:18 New International Version (NIV)
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only
Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father,
has made him known.
Jesus is God's greatest message. He not only proclaims and
declares God's love, mercy, and grace, he has made it known. Only Jesus can
display God to us fully, for he is one with the Father. Yet when we
"see" Jesus ministering in the Gospels, we see God. If we want to
know how God feels about us, all we have to do is look at how Jesus ministers
to others. If we want to know what God would do for us, we can notice what
Jesus does to bless others. Jesus is our window to the Father's heart. So as
this year winds down, and as you stand in the afterglow of Christmas, why not
make a commitment to get to know Jesus better in this coming year by spending
more time with him in the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John). If you do,
you will better know God!
Thought for today:
How much time do I spend in the word?
