Daily Reflections

The Power of Prepositions

9/9/2021

Prepositions are words that tell us where something is.
​"All things have been created through him and for him, and he is before all things, and in him all things hold together"
Colossians 1:16-17 
Prepositions tell us that God is in, through, with, for, and before us. I read today that God’s call is never that you do more for Him but it is God’s call that we always do more with Him. 
​
There are many scriptures around the use of prepositions but one of my favourites is "Behold I stand at the door and knock. If anyone will hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him, and sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20). 

Lord, I pray, that today as I/we read these words again, that I/we learn to be with you and not just doing things for you. Amen
