Colossians 2:6 As you, therefore, have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 

Think about these questions as you meditate on the verse. What does this verse teach me? How does this verse apply to my Life?

FRESH TOUCH WITH GOD

 Mark 1:35-45

Jesus was never too busy to pray. That explains his close, helpful touch with men. That was a busy day in the Galilean fishing town. But he was up early the next morning for the fresh talk with the Father; that came first. Out of it grew the clear vision of the next towns with their needs, though it was easier to stay with the enthusiastic Capernaum crowds. Prayer clears the vision, warms the heart, and makes us practical.

Colossians 3:17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

LET YOUR HEART CONTROL YOUR HAND

 Mark 1:21-34

Jesus couldn’t help working. He had a tender heart. He felt the need of the crowds. He couldn’t withstand the plea of their need. His heart responded. His hand reached out quickly to help. No criticism or scorn or opposition could hold back the thing so sorely needed. The work grew out of a heart in touch with his Father and with the needy crowds. This is the secret of true working, now as then.

Hebrews 12:28  Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

John 1:35-47

Jesus winning five men one after another into personal friendship—how like him and his Father! For God loves the personal touch. When he created man he gave a bit of himself, his breath. When man lost touch he gave his only Son to get us back in touch. And Jesus gave his own very self, his life, in doing it. Let us keep in close, personal touch with Jesus, and help somebody get in touch, too.

1 Chronicles 16:8 Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.

Isaiah 42:1-8

God carries an ideal in his heart. Eden pictures that ideal most winsomely—God and man walking and working in a garden as closest friends. Sin broke the ideal. God gave his Son to heal the hurt of sin and woo us back to the garden-life. Both prophecy and gospel tell how practical and winsome his wooing was. God’ll never rest content till his ideal has become real. Let us make it real today.

Psalm 136:26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Hebrews 4:14-16; Hebrews 5:1-9

Jesus was the Brother of man as well as the Son of man. He shared our experiences. He trod the same rough road, and knew the same tight corners. He was tempted as we are, and he was tempted first, and he was tempted most. The path’s never so rough for our feet. His have smoothed it down. He understands. He can help; he knows by experience. And he will help, and we shall have victory today.
