PRELUDE
Creation
displays the wonder and beauty of God in a thousand
miraculous ways. With each golden sunrise, God renews the shining
promises of life with us. In the noonday, He decorates our journey of
faith with the magnificent colors of peace and joy. In the evening, each
sparkling star splashes silver promise upon the canvases of our souls.
How great is our God the Creator! How marvelous is the art of His
hands! Like a gallery of grace, God's eternal truth is gifted to us in vivid
hues of hope and assurance.
In the brilliance of the universe, we glimpse the glory of God. Yet this
glory pales in comparison to the radiant splendor of Jesus. In Him we
see the true colors of divine love and grace. Nothing can compare with
the surpassing beauty of knowing Him.
Today as we gather to consider His remarkable life, may our vision be
renewed and, as we worship, may we clearly see God's perfect portrait
of grace in His beauty.
Hear this word from Scripture:
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.
