This Jesus Thing
This Christian Walk
Is not a game.
It is the real thing.
Just say
His Name.
It isn't a roll of a dice
that
just maybe
He will be
Peace
that
just maybe
He will be
Hope
that
just maybe
He will be
Joy
that
just maybe
He will be
Love
Because
This Jesus Thing
has been around
for
2018 years.
What a reminder for me this morning
as I was trying to come up with the
perfect
christian~ese word
because
deep in my soul
I was just feeling
blah
and
just wanted
one word
that would
shake this blah from my heart.
And there
He was,
so simple
the letters
J

"We look at this Son and see the God who cannot be seen.
We look at this Son and see God’s original purpose in everything created.
For everything, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible,
rank after rank after rank of angels—
everything got started in Him and finds its purpose in Him.
He was there before any of it came into existence and
holds it all together right up to this moment.
And when it comes to the church, He organizes and holds it together, like a head does a body.
He was supreme in the beginning and—
leading the resurrection parade—
He is supreme in the end.
From beginning to end He’s there,
towering far above everything, everyone.
So spacious is He, so roomy,
that everything of God finds its proper place in Him without crowding.
Not only that,
but all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe—
people and things, animals and atoms—
get properly fixed and fit together in vibrant harmonies, all because of
His death,
His blood that poured down from the cross." (Colossians 1:15-20 The Message)
Therefore
Let's
Walk the Talk
and
just say
the
One Word
that changes you
Just Say Jesus~
