little-HUGE-words

There are times in our understanding of the word, when it is the understanding of the big, long words that we must master....propitiation, atonement, reconciliation, preeminence...are but a few examples.

Today, in my reading of scripture, I came to a fresh understanding of how important the little words are to the infusion of our souls with light...
I will quote the passage and in each little-HUGE-word case put it in caps.

"He is THE image of THE invisible God,
THE firstborn of ALL creation.
For by him ALL things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities
- ALL things were created through him and for him.
And he is before ALL things,
and in him ALL things hold together.
And he is THE head of THE body THE church.
He is THE beginning, THE firstborn from the dead,
that in EVERYthing he might be preeminent.
For in him ALL the fulness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself ALL things,
whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross." Colossians 1:15-20

Jesus is unique and entire...THE only one who is as He is...for everyone and every situation we face.

May you have a powerful HUGE-word day.

Jesus..He is more than enough.

David
