Read this: Colossians 1:15-17 (New Living Translation)
"Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can't see- such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together."
Think about it:
Wow! What a wonderful paragraph of scripture this is!
Really think about this ... God created you and everything in the universe.
So who do you think would be better than God to help you when you feel like your life is falling apart?
Have you ever felt that way before ... so hopeless that you feel as if no one is their to hold you ... or maybe you've just had a rough day, week, month or year ...
I want you to know that God sent his son for you and for me so that we can live this life the way he intended it ... FREE FROM THE BONDAGE OF SIN ... so that we can live in God's presence while we are here on earth and then when we finally make it to heaven.
I can only imagine how it will be on that day when we all get to see his face and finally feel his loving arms around us ... the way it was supposed to be all along.
Watch this:
Pray about it: After thinking about how awesome God and Jesus is, pray to him and thank him for all he has done. Sit in his presence and think of all the good things he has given you instead of focusing on negative thoughts. If you are struggling with something, ask him to help you through it. Ask him to help you lean on him instead of the pain or frustration. Also, pray for others who are struggling as well. Pray that they'll see God's grace and know they are not alone.
Live it: It's easier said than done, but live today with the confidence in knowing that you don't have to face this world alone. Know that Jesus is holding you together through everything. And you can face the world with your faith strong. You can do it, with Him!
