Down to the smallest detail… perfect!

Jesus is before all things,
and in him all things hold together.
Colossians 1:17 (NIV)

Before there was an earth, universe, or nature, there was Jesus! He was before they were made. He will be after they are long gone. In fact, his power and his presence are what hold our world, our universe, and our nature together. He is the sustaining force, the enabling power, and the generous preserver of life as we know it. So if he could provide us these things and they are but a faint anticipation of what is yet to be, won’t it be great to see him, just as he is, and share in his glory with him!

In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. (John 1:1-5 NLT)

Thank you, Jesus,
for your gracious
providence this day.
Thank you for creating this
incredible world in which I live.
You are worthy of all praise,
honor, glory, and thanks!
I look forward to the day
when I can worship you face to face,
and give thanks to our Father
for his wonderful love.
To you, and in your name, dear Jesus,
I offer all my thanks and praise.
Amen.
