Join me, Rick, as I explore the timeless words from the Gospel of John that shed light on the eternal presence of the Word and invite us into a deeper understanding of creation's untouched beauty. Together, we reflect on the joy and harmony that filled the world when God walked among His creatures, offering them the fullness of life. As we connect with Jesus, the Word, we not only witness the wonder of creation but hear the Creator's voice, inviting us to live with grace and truth.

00:00:02.564 --> 00:00:07.413
Welcome to Wisdom for the Day, your daily source for spiritual refreshment and guidance.

00:00:07.413 --> 00:00:08.734
I'm Rick.

00:00:08.734 --> 00:00:13.651
Join me as I dive into God's Word to find clarity and strength for life's challenges.

00:00:13.651 --> 00:00:19.466
Let me help you embrace each day with faith and wisdom, ready to feel inspired.

00:00:19.466 --> 00:00:21.065
Let's get started.

00:00:21.065 --> 00:00:25.705
Today is day four.

00:00:25.705 --> 00:00:27.170
God speaks.

00:00:27.170 --> 00:00:37.770
We'll be reading from the Gospel of John, chapter 1, verse 1, from the New Living Translation In the beginning the Word already existed.

00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:42.131
The Word was with God and the Word was God.

00:00:42.131 --> 00:00:46.930
You know, it's fun to imagine what the world was like at the very beginning.

00:00:46.930 --> 00:00:52.972
Maybe we picture vast stretches of untouched wilderness, like the national parks that we visit today.

00:00:52.972 --> 00:01:00.588
Tourists gaze in awe from their cars or buses while the animals go about their lives barely noticing the humans that are nearby.

00:01:00.588 --> 00:01:03.923
Or we might think about the wonder of new human life are nearby.

00:01:03.923 --> 00:01:06.667
Or we might think about the wonder of new human life when everything is safe and right.

00:01:06.667 --> 00:01:12.055
Little children run and play and imagine and learn as if they don't have a care in the world.

00:01:12.055 --> 00:01:21.504
Maybe creation was like that when it was all new Nothing to fear, only joyful play for all of God's creatures.

00:01:21.504 --> 00:01:29.626
The Bible tells us why there's so much joy and wonder in creation, especially when we see it at its best In the beginning was the Word.

00:01:30.781 --> 00:01:32.989
Creation didn't come into being on its own.

00:01:32.989 --> 00:01:36.087
In the beginning, god was there.

00:01:36.087 --> 00:01:42.569
He was speaking to His creatures, sharing with them the joy of life in its fullest sense.

00:01:42.569 --> 00:01:45.665
God still speaks today.

00:01:45.665 --> 00:01:55.941
When we know Jesus, who is the Word, we not only see the beauty of creation, but also hear the Creator speaking to us with grace and truth.

00:01:55.941 --> 00:02:03.513
God wants us, his creatures, to live with Him and enjoy the beauty of His presence.

00:02:03.513 --> 00:02:09.807
Can you hear that word, word of God, speak to us.

00:02:09.807 --> 00:02:15.468
Thank you for being there in the beginning and thank you for speaking still today.

00:02:15.468 --> 00:02:20.592
Help us to hear your voice of grace and truth, Amen.

00:02:20.592 --> 00:02:28.469
Well, that's all for today, but I'll be back tomorrow with more of God's Word.
