February 15, 2021 Spitting Image – Colossians 1:15-23

In a family gathering a long time ago, one of our cousins said my oldest brother looked very much like my father. As I was much younger then I was no comparison with anyone.

There’s only one Son—Jesus—who reflects His Father completely. “The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.” (Colossians 1:15)

“For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.” (Colossians 1:16, 17) Jesus invites us to witness His love in action by examining how He interacts with others in Scripture and in our day-to-day living.

After surrendering our lives to Christ and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit, we can grow in knowing and trusting our loving Father. He transforms us to reflect His character, so we can live for Him. Jesus, please help me know You more as You make me more like You!
