Incarnation

I have been studying John 1, a passage I have studied many times before and will study many times again.

The main idea of the passage is incarnation- the coming of God in the form of Jesus... The Eternal Spirit taking on flesh and blood.

And he came to his own and his own did not receive him. But to those who did receive him, he gave the opportunity to to become the children of God.

Living things out is always more messy than just thinking about ideas in the board room, office, or imagination.

We are very much getting to the 'living it out' phase. And, as in everything, it is filled with ups and downs. Just like Jesus' life- just like your life.

However, I am thankful that we are in the reality phase rather than the theory phase. Above all else, it means we get to see God move more than ever.
