Colossians 1-21
Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior.
—Colossians 1:21
Thoughts on the Verse
So many people reject God because of the things they do not want to give up for him. Instead, they must come to know Jesus and his sacrificial love for them before they are able to realize that God's demand for holiness in them is because he is their friend, not their enemy.
Prayer
Holy and mighty God, I praise you for your love and holiness. Thank you for demonstrating both by sending Jesus to save me. I regret the times that I saw your desire for holiness to be too demanding or harsh. I thank you for loving me enough to not only save me in Jesus, but also to call me to a holy life under your protection and care. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
