The Word= Jesus

John 1:1-5

1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He existed in the beginning with God. 3 God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. 4 The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.

Many people have wondered how we got here. Did a massive explosion happen? Did we come from monkeys? The answer to those questions can be easily solved. In the beginning the Word already existed. Let’s put it this way, in this scripture, replace “the Word” with Jesus.

When Jesus said, “all authority in heaven and on earth has been given unto me” in Matthew 28, he wasn’t joking. Jesus was always there from the beginning of creation. He was the master artist if you will for all of his creation. He’s the one that gave us life, knowledge, and dominion over the earth.

We should always remember that Jesus is the cornerstone for all of life. He is the only thing that matters. Job said, “The Lord gives and takes away.” Everything will go through Jesus. The only way we will have eternal life is by believing and trusting in God’s Son, Jesus. Everything else we do on earth will disappear and vanish in an instant. Today, just focus on Jesus and thank him for creating you and for being your Lord and Savior.

Dear Jesus, thank you for being my Lord and Savior. Thank you for creating me. Help me to live my life for you and you alone. Give me the wisdom and knowledge to stay in your will. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
