When Jesus Walked... [Colossians 1:16]

Col 1:16 because by Him everything was created, in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him.

How often do we really sit back and examine the awesomeness of God? Do we realize how big He is? Yet, He desires to live in and through me? As I was coming home from work last night, I heard a pastor on the radio give a “ministry minute” segment. This is basically what He shared:

Can you imagine what it was like when Jesus first walked among His creation? I can just picture Him walking along the Sea of Galilee, seeing the horizon in the distance and saying “I remember when I created this…” Or imagine Him traveling and seeing Mount Herman in the distance, “I formed you and you are still as mighty as the day I created you…”

Many times we take for granted that the creator of the universe came down in the form of a man, to die for the sins that I committed. Do we really understand or grasp the enormity of that? The One who spoke creation into existence, dwelt among man. Wow.
So, today when you look outside and see the blue sky which Jesus set in place or the green grass which He caused to grow, take a moment to say “Thank you.”
