If you open your Bible to the beginning, this is what you will find.
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.” [Genesis 1:1 NLT]
If you open your Bible to the beginning of John’s Gospel, this is what you will find.
“In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.” [John 1:1-3 NLT]
In the beginning. This is how it all began. God created the universe through His Son, the Word, who is Christ Jesus our LORD.
I had a conversation with someone I love the other day. He said something about looking “to the universe for answers.” I told him to forget “the universe” and go straight to the One who created the universe. Why settle for second best when you can have the highest and best.
I guarantee “the universe” is not going to answer you … nor does it have the power to change you or heal you or rescue you. But Christ Jesus our LORD alone – the One through whom “the universe” came into being – has the power and authority to answer you, change you, heal you and rescue you.
To Him be all the glory. Amen & Amen
