A Daily Devotion for Friday, October 16

Colossians 1:24-29

verse 27: To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
 

This verse (and there are other similar verses) reminds me of the simple truth behind God’s word. From the time of Christ onward, God reminds and commissions his workers to spread the good news over all the world. God was no longer to be recognized and shared only by a small group of people. This is evidence to me of the true divinity of Christ. If it were up to man alone, we would be greedy about faith in Christ, and not so apt to spread the word. God changes us. God is for everyone, everywhere.
 

Lord above, you are my God, but you are Lord and Master over all the earth. I am your servant, and part of the family you have created. Lead me, and help me to see opportunities as they move across my day. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen
