Today's meditation: Revelation of invisible God

Only one is God, brothers, the one whom we know by no other way than that of the Holy Scriptures.
We must therefore know all that the divine Scriptures announce to us and know what they teach us. We must believe in the Father, as he wants us to believe him, glorify the Son as he wants us to glorify him, receive the Holy Spirit as he wishes that we receive him.
Let's try to arrive at an understanding of the divine realities not according to our intelligence and certainly not by doing violence to the gifts of God, but in the way in which he himself wanted to reveal himself in the Holy Scriptures.
God existed in himself perfectly alone. There was nothing that was somehow partaker of its eternity. Then he set out to create the world. As he thought it, as he wanted it and as he described it with his word, so too he created it. The world began to exist, therefore, as he had wished. And which one had designed it, he made it so. Therefore God existed in his uniqueness and there was nothing that was coeternal with him. Nothing existed but God. He was alone, but complete in everything. In him was found intelligence, wisdom, power and advice. Everything was in him and he was everything. When he wanted to, and to the extent that he wanted, he, in the time set by him, revealed to us his Word by means of which he had created all things.
Since then God possessed his Word in himself, and it was inaccessible to the created world, he made it accessible. By pronouncing a first word, and generating light from light, he presented his own Thought to the same creation as Lord, and made visible the one whom he alone knew and saw in himself and who before was absolutely invisible to the created world. He revealed it because the world saw it and thus could be saved.
This is the Wisdom that coming into the world revealed himself to be the Son of God. Everything was created through him, but he is the only one who comes from the Father.
He then gave a law and prophets and made them speak in the Holy Spirit so that, receiving the inspiration of the Father's power, they would announce the will and plan of the Father.
Thus, therefore, the Word of God was revealed, as Blessed John says, who summarily takes up the things already said by the prophets showing that this is the Word, in which everything was created. John says: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Everything was done through him, without him nothing was done" (Jn 1, 1).
Further on he says: The world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his family, but his family did not welcome him (cf. Jn 1: 10-11).
