Hold it together

“Hold it together, already”. I’m sure you have heard that phrase or maybe have told yourself this line a time or two. How does one do such a thing? With at least three different schedules going at the same time, how does one keep things together and make sense of it all?

Consider these verses in Colossians - “16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. “ (Colossians 1:16-17) In Christ ALL things were created…ALL things hold together. No wonder I often get the feeling that I can’t “hold it together”, because without Christ as my focus I CAN’T.

May your day be freed by this thought. Give ALL things to Him, who holds all things together.
