"If you have been treated unjustly by others or simply by life, avoid compounding the difficulty and forgive the persons involved. Lord, help me abandon the habit of reliving my hurts and humiliations and allowing them to control my emotional well-being.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father. —Colossians 1:1
I love a good letter. The epistles are especially appealing because of their holy salutations. Note how often believers bless one another, pray for one another, and wish one another God’s grace and every goodness. God’s grace and blessing are infinitely abundant. How often do we call on them throughout our day on behalf of one another? Today, let’s make a greater effort to call on the blessing of God Almighty for all people we encounter

Jesus said to Simon,“Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.” —Luke 5:11
At my brother’s ordination reception, the organizers had filled mason jars with water, put a fish in each one, and attached a note saying Be fishers of men. The gifts were meant for the children to take home, to stir their imaginations and spirits toward the possibility of vocations, but what a good reminder for all. We are not after health, wealth, or success, though these things can be great helps to us. We are all fishers of people. In our private, unique ways, let’s go fishing today.

He Is Before All Things, And In Him All Things Hold Together. —Colossians 1:17
God Knows—Before The Plane Goes Down, The Disease Hits, The Economy Tumbles, Or Your Child Grows Ill. God’s Gaze Rests On You Before The Betrayal Or The Sin, Before Love Dies Or Grows Stale, Before Your Loneliness Or Selfishness, Before Whatever Season Of Suffering Or Strife May Befall You. See God’s Hands, Strong And Eternal And Able, Holding You Up, Holding Together You And Yours—And The Very World Around You.

God has now reconciled you in the fleshly Body of Christ through his death, to present you holy, without blemish, and irreproachable before him, provided that you persevere in the faith, firmly grounded, stable, and not shifting from the hope of the Gospel. —Colossians 1:22–23
Fixum est cor meum. My heart is steadfast, O Lord, my heart is set.
Jesus, my heart can be fickle and shifting. Help me to grow more steady. Keep me firmly grounded in you, my heart set upon you.

Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. Which of you wishing to construct a tower does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if there is enough for its completion? —Luke 14:28
Jesus desires for us to love through to completion, because that is the way he loves: completely, fully, to the end, to eternity.
