John F. Kennedy Jr., the highly respected son of the late American President John F. Kennedy, was posthumously praised by the editorial staff of George Magazine, a monthly political magazine the young Kennedy co-founded four years ago.
Quoting from the magazine’s latest issue: “John had a hand in every aspect of creating and producing George – the big picture and the daily details.”
Comments: Reading the eulogies and accolades given to this American icon a Christian would have to reflect on another Son who had a direct “hand in every aspect of creating and producing … the big picture and the daily details.”
Upon close examination, the believer will notice God’s Son not only aided in the creation of a book but was involved the creation of the whole world. [John 1:3] Now that is a very big picture.
In fact, the book is called the Word, and the Son is the Word. And this Word is sharper than a two-edged sword … and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart [Hebrews 4:12; NASB]. We are also told it is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. [2 Timothy 3:15-16; NASB]. Now those are special daily details.
