Reflections Along the Jesus Way
December 19, 2023 – Quote for the Day:
ย โIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.ย He was with God in the beginning (John 1:1-2).ย While many stories begin with the words โonce upon a timeโ Johnโs Christmas story, about eternity invading human time and spaceโฆ begins with the words โin the beginning.โ ย Instead of telling us about โonce upon a timeโ the sense here is โonce before time.โ John writes about โin the beginningโ โ before time existed, before time began, before the creation of the world as we know it, and before God came into the world in the person of Jesusโฆ He came from outside time into time.โย
