And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
John 1:14 (ESV)
The glory of God. At times, it is tangible, in the presence of signs, miracles and wonders, when these are attributed to the Lord. At times, it is the demonstration of His character; slow to anger, merciful, gentle, and kind. The glory is visible to those who are close to Him. Others may not understand or comprehend His presence.
It is the glory as the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth that surpasses all. We have acknowledged Him as the Son of God. He is our Lord and Saviour. He lives in us. As children of God, we carry His glory as we carry His presence.
Dear Father God, thank You that Jesus is the full manifestation of Your glory. It is not abstract. It is tangible. It can be experienced. To You be the glory. In Jesus' name, Amen.
