“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us” (v14). John’s gospel, instead of starting with Mary, Joseph, and the angels, tells about Jesus’ birth beginning with His identity as the Word of God. The One who became a baby was with God in the beginning; through this Word everything was made. He came to His own – His own people, His own creation – and mostly, He was rejected (v11). But those who received the humble, dusty, vulnerable Man as Lord became what He intended: sons and daughters of God (v12).

“The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world” (v9). Every other hope, tradition, or system falls short. Only Jesus, shining brightly, shows us the eternal Father and leads us home.
