Colossians 1:18

From Sharon...

Morning Saints,

I want to bring very simple yet powerful truth. Colossians 1:18 reads:

'And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.'

If we choose, Christ can be supreme in all areas of our lives. Every weakness, thought, feeling, desire, accomplishment, strength, the frustrations, the minute worries that we think aren't even worth uttering (something i can struggle with), every relationship or what we perceive as lack of relationship, every job, every choice, every song, anything creative...the list goes on. I believe this translation includes 'might' because he won't override our freewill so in something things, he needs to be invited to be supreme.

Let's make a choice and invite him to sit on the throne in our lives becaus he is the head of the church; the head of us who make up his body. Let's not glorify our weaknesses or strengths or anything more than we need to. Instead let's allow him to have all glory in every area of our lives.

God bless
Sharon
