“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.” Colossians 1:16
Lord Jesus, You are Lord of all. You created all things and you put them all under your feet. It is all created through you and for you. I forget that part sometimes. I think that it’s for me. I think that it’s about me. I think that everything revolves around me. When in fact, the world, along with both everything and everyone in it, revolves around you. You created this world and even me to magnify your glory and to be a reflection of who you are. O dear Jesus, forgive me for this self-centered thinking. Forgive me. I do praise you that even in my self-centeredness you never stop ruling over all things. I can’t screw it up (and I shouldn’t try!) But I praise you that I don’t and I can’t. You will always be over all and through all and in all. In all things you remain Lord of all. Amen.
On the one hand I shouldn’t sin, on the other hand I can’t screw it up. Even in my sin, Jesus remains Lord of all.
