7/30 Colossians 1:21-23
This includes you who were once so far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions, yet now he has brought you back as his friends. He has done this through his death on the cross in his own human body. As a result, he has brought you into the very presence of God, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault. But you must continue to believe this truth and stand in it firmly. Don’t drift away from the assurance you received when you heard the Good News. The Good News has been preached all over the world, and I, Paul, have been appointed by God to proclaim it.
BELIEVE
It is your choice. Believe the Lord or do not believe the Lord. One element that we may overlook in belief is that our beliefs change our lives. In Christ we move forward with real love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness and all other things connected with life. Without Jesus life becomes a crap shoot-our view always clouded by what may or may not happen.
