This week, we will resume our Colossians study. And, the verses are powerful. I am going to aim for 5 verses, but these are so amazing, we may not be able to get through one of them. What are these verses? Here they are:
Colossians 1: 9-14
9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
I don't want to share too much of the lesson before Sunday, but I would like to open with one question. Just think about this and post a response if you have one:
What are you supposed to do when you don't feel God in your life? What actions should you take? Should you be worried? Overall, what should you do?

First get rid of all catistrofic problems in your life. such as felloney drugs, premarital sex, any thing that if caught once will permantly change your life. know youve "bought" some time to think and talk it over with God. Now you stay you dont do any of that and your white as a sheet of printer paper you probably were talking,talking,talking,talking,talking with God and he's probably just siting back and letting you ramble on like a parent with a child then the child stops and listens...well what you got to say God? some times i thik that verse in the bible that says "be still and know that i am GOD" could be interperted as "shut up, turn the Ipod off, turn the radio down, and Know that I am GOD".
