Today’s Bible Verse:
“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” — John 1:14

This verse highlights a radical reality: God chooses closeness over distance. Jesus didn’t just visit humanity — He dwelled here. His glory, grace, and truth weren’t abstract concepts; they were tangible and witnessed in daily life, relationships, fragility, celebrations, interruptions, and the ache of being understood.
