Little is much when God is in it!

 
Jesus is My Master

Sunday Pastor Carl read from Colossians 1:14-23. The following is a gleaning as I took notes:

19 For it pleased the Father that in Him (Jesus) should all fullness dwell - -

The city of Colossi was a tiny village and God has chosen the small things of this world that He might show his power though those who consider themselves little in their own eyes.

1. Jesus illustrated that small faith even as infinitesimal as a mustard seed will accomplish great things.

2. A cup of water given in His name will receive a reward.

3. Jesus used a young boy’s small lunch to feed a multitude.

4. Great things come in small packages and God can use even the least of us for His glory as we submit to him.

5. Jesus called the lowly fishermen to be his followers, and told them that they would become fishers of men. Peter later wrote two books of the Bible and a transformed Peter reached out to strengthen and influence the believers of that day and of ours.

Jesus brings meaning to our lives as we worship him and bow down before Him. He brought us redemption through His blood.

By Him all things consist as Jesus is the Head of the body. The Head controls the body and gives it direction. The church is His body. Not this church membership or a building, but the collection of all Christian believers, washed in His blood, scattered world wide are the body of Christ. 

Understand that as a born again believer, "You are the Church."

We as Christians must learn to practice the presence of Jesus daily as we walk with him.

Thomas said he would not believe that Jesus was raised from the dead until he could see and touch Him. Jesus gave Thomas the opportunity to touch and see, and then He stated that blessed are those who believe and have not seen.

There is so much beyond us that we have not seen, yet we believe. There are angels all around us ministering in our behalf. There is an old hymn that says, “I love to tell the story of UNSEEN things above, of Jesus and His glory of Jesus and His love.”

Unseen is The Holy Spirit hovering and gently moving over all the earth, wooing and bringing men and women to Christ. We are to work together with the Holy Spirit and with other Christians because God uses people to preach and teach the Good News to others.

We serve a Living Savior and He is in the Father, the Father is in Him, and He is in us! Amazing to know that Jesus lives in ME by his Holy Spirit.

Jesus has conquered every enemy, saving us He loves us, and there is no limit to His love. Jesus Christ must be Preeminent in all things. Let us serve him with our Love.

If you have not received Jesus as your Savior I beg of you to repent of your sins and ask Jesus to come into your life.  He died on the cross for you, but he rose from the dead after three days and he is alive for ever more.
