And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. — Colossians 1:17

Jesus was there before the earth, the universe, and nature. He existed before they did. He will still be there long after they are gone. In fact, his power and presence are what keep our world, universe, and nature together. He is the force that keeps life going, the power that makes it possible, and the generous one who keeps it going. So, if he could give us these things and they were just a hint of what was to come, wouldn’t it be great to see him as he is and share in his glory?
