Jesus the Word, the Light, the Life was also full of grace and truth. And from His fullness of these, the believer in Jesus Chrsit has
"received, grace upon grace: (John 1:16).I see this as another gift He gives to His children.
And if we're gonna ask Jesus "Why'd you do this?" I believe He lovingly answers, "Because I love you."
Indeed, He loved us so much He gave His life for us that we may be redeemed.
And now He takes responsibility for His family members bestowing His spiritual blessings and favor upon us, His children, like good fathers do. What more, He is our Heavenly Father who loves and cares.
Yet He is also full of truth and when we sin, the truth is we displease Him and we need to take responsibility for our own actions. However, when we sincerely confess those wrong doings He is merciful too, and will forgive us all our unrighteousness because He has already atoned for all our sins.
Jesus, who is also God, balances grace and truth so that He can also show us His mercy and together we can form and build our relationship with Him, the Word who was from the beginning. He is our Creator, Savior and Lord.
He gave His Word to us, His life for us and shined His light upon us and now we can share it all with the people in the world He came to save. He made this possible for all mankind. Not many will want Him but some will.
Let's let His light help lead us to shine His light for others.
