I thought these words – taken from today’s study, were good: “The visit of God to our world was not a momentary rift in the clouds, giving us a fleeting glance of the Deity. No, He dwelt among us, from the manager to the tomb; amid our poverty, amid our temptations, amid our problems and our choices, amid our oppositions and disappointments.”
I think, the important point is that God’s plan, to be with us – was formed before time began. Jesus, our creator God, knew about the agony on His cross, before He even walked with Adam and Eve in His beautiful garden.
The story of our God is a story about relationships – it’s a story with an ending that does not depend on our frail ‘good intentions’. It’s a story, that starts and ends, with God’s perfect love for His people. Do you agree?
The first five verses of John’s gospel – really do – tells us a lot, about God; what follows, is my translation 
: “In the beginning Jesus already existed. Jesus was with God, and Jesus is God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through Jesus. Jesus gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. Jesus’ light shines in the darkness, and Satan can never extinguish His light.”
