The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
John 1:14
I want to spend some time thinking about what grace and truth means. Jesus is FULL of them. I was thinking about a weekend retreat some of my friends went on this weekend. They had to wear a badge at the beginning of the weekend of their own choosing, either: "Broken" "Angry" and "Deceiver. Jesus was not an angry man. He was not a deceiver. He was not broken. He was the only whole person ever to walk the face of the earth. That is what grace and truth is not. What grace and truth is...well don't look to anyone or anything except Jesus.
