“In the Beginning…”

I have a lot of favorite scriptures, but right up at the top of the list is John 1:1. I’m sure you know it: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” How wonderful to know Jesus is both God and our Creator. Our loving and caring Savior has always been there for us, from the beginning, and even before, for eternity. This scripture helps me better understand the nature of God. I’ve read a lot of different ways to describe God, but one author used the analogy of writing a story. God the Father has the story idea. God the Son, the Word, writes the story, and God the Holy Spirit communicates the story. No analogy is perfect, but as a writer that speaks to me. When we live out and share the gospel, we are participating with God in the most amazing story ever told!
