The Word Became Flesh

Before time began, before the stars were spoken into place, there was the Word.

John opens his Gospel with a declaration that reaches back to creation itself: “In the beginning

was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

This Word was not an idea. Not a sound. Not a force. The Word was a Person.

Through Him, all things were made. Light, land,

sea, sky — everything came into existence by His command.

Then, in the most astonishing act in history, the eternal Word did something no

one expected. “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.”
