Colossians 1:15-23
“He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together” (Colossians 1:17)
As these weeks have gone on, it is easy to feel like we’re coming apart. Strains at home are real as we are forced into non-stop, daily interactions – and daily irritations – with one another. Too much time apart makes it feel like we aren’t a church body anymore. We might even feel ourselves fraying within ourselves.
In this short devotion, I want us to focus and trust in one thing only: Jesus is ahead of us in this mess and in Him all things hold together.
Friends, you have this because you have Jesus (or, more theologically correct, Jesus has you!). You will be held together – we will be held together – because this is who Jesus is. This entire passage from Colossians is one, long description of who Jesus is.
God (will, does, and is) bless(ing) you. Amen.
