We proclaim him [Christ], admonishing and teaching everyone with all
wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. — Colossians 1:28
THOUGHTS ON TODAY’S VERSE....
The life of Jesus is transformational. The resurrection of Jesus is
transformational. The Gospel of Jesus is transformational. Jesus' gift of the
Spirit is transformational. The proclamation of Jesus is transformational. The work
of Jesus is transformational. In other words, Jesus is the key, the center, the
hub, and the heart of what we do and why we do it. Paul also reminds us that
Jesus Christ is our goal.
PRAYER.
Father, please forgive me. I confess that in my zeal to help others, I have
sometimes lost sight of Jesus' power to change their lives and relied on my own
meager resources. As I seek to know Christ more perfectly and as I seek to be
more like Christ in my daily character, please use me to lead others to him and
to be like him. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, the name above all names,
I pray. Amen.
