In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God
And the Word was God, He was in the beginning with God
All things were made made through Him
And without Him was not anything made that was made
In Him was life, and the life was the light of men
The light shines through the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it
Before there was any time or any matter
There was the Word, Jesus Christ, the Son of God
The very same God who was there in the beginning
Who created the heavens and the earth
The very same, self-sufficient, uncreated, unborn, living, and eternal God
Is Jesus Christ, Jesus is God
Jesus was the perfect embodiment of God's mind and will
Which is why He was called the Word
And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us
And we have seen His glory
Glorious of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth
In the act of becoming human
Did You know that Jesus identified with our pain?
The pain of loneliness, He felt that
The hurt of rejection, He felt that
The sadness of losing a loved one to death, Jesus felt that
The scars of mental and physical abuse, He felt that
Jesus is not just powerful, but also personal
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us
And we have seen His glory
The glorious of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth
In Jesus, we behold the glory of God
Let me say that again, In Jesus, we behold the glory of God
Church, when we fully grasp this beautiful truth
It should leave us completely mind-blown and awestruck
And the only fitting and rightful response is to worship this God
As we lift up our hands, we proclaim
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise
His greatness no one can fathom
As we lift up shouts of praise, we declare
That You be enthroned in the praises of Your people
We lift up a shout of praise to our God
Beyond and in this place, in Jesus' Name, we pray
Amen
