from Colossians 1:16 - All were created through him. All were created for him.
Thoughts: What strikes me here is the word "all". We tend to band together as Christians and we sit in our little prayer groups and sing praise songs and think we are really getting it done. But are we? This has been tugging at my heart for a while. I have been on twitter for a little while now and as I look through my list of followers and following, they are mostly people like me. Jesus preached and reached out to the sick, the poor and the sinners. Maybe I am missing something here.
If I stop and look around me and take the time to observe all that God created and realize that they too were created for him, we will see that everyone one was created to glorify God. We are all called to glorify God by our lives. Some have more success than others but by the blood of Jesus he shows that he care for all that were created for him.
I challenge everyone, including myself, to look at everyone we meet today through the eyes of Jesus Christ that we may see, in them, God's creation. Let us also be workers for Christ helping our brother realize the awesomeness of God's creation in each one of them.
