June Early Morning Prayer
John 1:1–18 is one of many scriptural passages that I treasure. I believe it captures beautifully the essence of the Gospel – the Good News and revelation of God and His redemptive plan in the person of Jesus Christ. Therefore, when I meditate and reflect upon “And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us…”, I am in awe and humble reverence of God and His grace to reconcile humanity to Himself. “And the Word became flesh…” signifies the pinnacle…
