Colossians 1: 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Paul begins another letter. He starts with thanksgiving for the faith of the readers. The second section describes Christ. He is the image of a God we can't visualize. He reconciles us with God so that we never need to fear death. And he is the head of our church.
The continuity of God caught my attention. He is the first, and we all reflect His creation. He continues to hold us together today. That's just unbelievably awesome. I don't understand why people don't see that as a relief. We can rest easy, knowing that the God who always has been will also always be there for us.
Prayer: Lord, You are almighty. You are our greatest blessing. You created all we see and so much more. And yet, You are always available to us. Thanks be to God
Amen
