Colossians 1:24-28
Today's Scripture
Paul rejoices in any suffering he endures for the sake of the gospel. He is glad to present the mystery Of God's truth--that God has chosen to reveal salvation through his Son not only to the Jesws, but also to the Gentiles. He teaches with all wisdom, and labors with all his energy, propelled by the power of the Holy Spirit.
This same Holy Spirit is at work in us, who wants to give us his wisdom and energy so we can make the truth known to all who would hear. Thank you Lord, for the many gifts you give us--salvation through your Son, power through your Spirit, and fellowship with those who would follow you.
