“He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.”
Colossians 1:17
Just a big bang theory? No! Because through Jesus we overcome the entropy and apathy of sin’s effects in our lives.
We say, “It’s impossible.” Jesus says, “All things are possible.” We say, “I’m tired.” Jesus says, “I will give you rest.” We say, “Nobody loves me.” Jesus says, “I love you.” We say, “I can’t go on.” Jesus says, “My grace is sufficient.” We say, “I can’t do it.” Jesus says, “You can do all things through my strength.” We say, “I can’t forgive myself.” Jesus says, “I forgive you.” We say, “I can’t manage.” Jesus says, “I will supply all your needs.” We say, “I’m afraid.” He says, “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” We say, “I’m worried.” He says, “Cast all your cares on me.” We say, “I don’t know the way.” He says, “I am the way.” We say, “I don’t know the truth.” He says, “I am the truth.” We say, “I feel alone.” He says, “I will never leave you or forsake you.”
In a world that would have exploded into existence, life falls apart. Jesus holds all things together— even our weaknesses and the forces arrayed against us.
