IF – sets important conditions

This Verse in Colossians speaks of Jesus

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the Church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent. For in Him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross. And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, He has now reconciled in His body of flesh by His death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before Him,

indeed you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.”

(Colossians 1:15-23 ESV)

In thick or thin, Triumph or failure, on top of the mountains or in the depths of valleys, stay true to God, lean on Jesus, and He will carry you through.

Nothing in All Creation — Except Us — Is Made in the Image of God

This picture is of a space shuttle leaving the atmosphere. It was taken from space by NASA a few years back, where a writer noted: “Amazing, isn’t it? How nano we are in the cosmic scale.” God’s creation is larger than anyone can truly comprehend, and we, even more “Nano” on a cosmic scale than this space shuttle.

God created us in His image!

He loves, knows, and Cares about every single one of us; He knows how many hairs are on our heads. Matthew 10:30 and Luke 12:7

God sees everything!

The eyes of the Lord are in every place, Watching the evil and the good.” Proverbs 15:3

“Does He not see my ways And number all my steps?” Job 31:4

God gave His only begotten Son that we may not perish but have everlasting life, should we choose to love Jesus enough to keep God’s commandments.” John 4:16

God loves you!
