Last week, we were captivated by the immense scope of who Jesus is and the powerful work He is doing in reconciling all of creation to God. Jesus, the creator of all things, is also the one who will restore all things. He is bringing peace and healing to the entire cosmos, making all things right once again.
However, in Colossians 1:21, Paul shifts the focus from this grand narrative to the personal work of Jesus in the lives of individuals with a simple, yet profound phrase: “and you.” The reconciliation He brings is not just for the universe at large, but for each and every one of us, right here, right now.
As we look at Colossians 1:21-23 this Sunday, we’ll explore this beautiful and life-changing truth—Jesus’ work isn’t just theoretical or distant. It’s for you.
