In The Beginning

John 1

1 In the beginning the Word already existed.

The Word was with God,

and the Word was God.

2 He existed in the beginning with God.

3 God created everything through him,

and nothing was created except through him.

4 The Word gave life to everything that was created,

and his life brought light to everyone.

5 The light shines in the darkness,

and the darkness can never extinguish it.

I like the way the NLT puts this: “In the beginning the Word already existed.” Jesus has always existed. He is without beginning and without end. He is the Light of the world. He is the source of life. Jesus is the Creative force of the universe. Jesus is LORD, and He is worthy of my praise today and every day of my life!
