He has reconciled you.

I've had a good sabbath day.  A nice mix of rest, ministry, & a little homemaking.

I was just reading the chunk of Colossians that we'll be covering tomorrow at church.

And being moved by it.

you were at one time strangers and enemies 

in your minds

as expressed 

through your evil deeds

but now

but now

but now

he has reconciled you

he 

has reconciled 

you

by his physical body through death

to present you 

to present you

holy, 

without blemish,

and blameless

before him

holy, 

without blemish,

and blameless

before him 

– if indeed you remain in the faith, 

established 

and firm, 

without shifting 

from the hope

the hope  

of the gospel that you heard.
