John concludes his gospel saying that there isn’t enough room in the world for the books it would take to catalogue everything Jesus is doing. But God doesn’t need books to tell the story of what he’s doing—he’s got you. Your life is a chronicle that continues to tell the story of Jesus. God views you in the same way that he views the person of Jesus. Just like Jesus in the first century, you—we all—are walking breathing images of the invisible fullness of God. No matter what you’ve done; no matter who you’ve hurt; no matter your brokenness… Jesus doesn’t write people off because of their story. He re-writes stories so that your story is one that reveals God’s Glory.
