Full of the Creator’s grace and truth

Morning: Psalms 1, 2, 3; Genesis 2:4-9; Hebrews 1:1-14
Evening: Psalms 4, 7; John 1:1-18

A remarkable thing, says John’s Gospel, is that in Jesus you experience the essence of the energy or force that created the Cosmos. That energy is grace and truth, found especially in Jesus. John speaks beautifully about this. Yes, you may say, but do you trust it? Well, I find much that is true and grace-filled in the Cosmos. The best of our humanity is one example. So far, too, after studying Jesus for quite a while now, I have found nothing that contradicts grace or truth in him. Do I trust this? Yes. And I trust him.
