“And you are in Him, made full and having come to fullness of life [in Christ you too are filled with the Godhead—Father, Son and Holy Spirit—and reach full spiritual stature]. And He is the Head of all rule and authority [of every angelic principality and power].” Colossians 2:10 ->me: Last night and today I was thinking about all my reading and how I have put these quiet times out there on the internet and to some of you in texts. I was struck at how similar all of these write-ups tend to be and the set of themes they consistently center around. Through Romans, Hebrews, Isaiah, and now Colossians the message is the same. Jesus in us is the fulfilment of God’s old testament promises and the hope to come. He in us is the comfort, peace, joy, and equipping of all that we need to grow into who God desires us to be. God, in His loving wisdom has put it all in place and as a child of God I am energized to show compassion, exhibit mercy, forgive the unforgivable, and bring others into the heavenly inheritance we have in the Father through the work of His Son on the cross.
