JESUS, CREATOR AND LORD
Colossians 1:16
"For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him."
Paul reminds me of John's declaration: "All things were made through Him...." (John 1:3). But Paul adds the understanding that everything – material (the universe) and immaterial (angels) – were created for His pleasure. He is Lord. Jesus was there in the Garden when Adam was created out of the dust. Man lives as though he is the apex of the universe and is in control. Man is not greater than his Creator. We live for His pleasure.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: As Creator, Jesus is Lord over His creation and the creation exists for His pleasure.
Have a "created" day. Love you.
