I thought I had a really great thought this morning about being in Orlando, and being right on the edge of Disney World and how that could have some symbolic meaning about being close to something that you really loved that you couldn’t get.
And then I thought about how at the Holy Lands Park on Monday they recreated the crucifixion and the resurrection of Christ and his second coming, and again how that was just like a tease since it was something that we lots of us look forward to, but alas it is not here yet.
So I thought I had a great thought about shadows and how those glimpses into the future keep us motivated to keep moving. I even thought that this verse in Colossians would be great for that,
17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ Colossians 2:17
But it was just a shadow of a thought, a passing glimpse, not even a real post, so I will just share this encouraging verse today instead:
15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. 17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Colossians 3:15-17
