19 For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20 and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.
21 And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled 22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight— 23 if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.
Colossians 1:19-23
lets trade, our lowly positions as sinners for reconciliation to God as the beloved. lets trade, focusing on the flesh for trusting in the guidance of peace by the holy Spirit. lets trade a defeated mentality for a more than conqueror spirit. lets trade all of us, for all of Jesus.
