Reflect
In today’s reading, how is Paul’s message different from the message others are trying to teach the Colossians? What verses point to these differences? What messages in the world today attempt to lure people away from the life that God offers through Christ Jesus? Reread verses 11–15. What good news does Paul convey?
Pray
Lord Jesus, I have accepted you as my Lord and Savior. My real life is with you. Keep me rooted in you and strengthen my faith each day as I live to serve you. Amen.
