The Sovereign One

"He is before all things, and in Him all things consist (hold together)" Colossians 1:17 [translation comment NASB]

As I read through Colossians this morning I was struck by the power of Christ in the universe. The two main attributes dealt with here are His preexistence and His omnipotence (all powerfulness). He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. Without Him nothing holds together. No atom, no universe, and no relationship will hold together as it should without Christ. May we live today as though He was holding all we have and are together; and may we worship Him as the preexistent, risen, God of the universe.
