Once you were alienated from God . . . . But now he has reconciled you.
Colossians 1:2122
A boy born with cerebral palsy was unable to speak or communicate. But his mother, Chantal Bryan, never gave up, and when he was ten years old she figured out how to communicate with him through his eyes and a letter board. After this breakthrough, she said, He was unlocked and we could ask him anything. Now Jonathan reads and writes, including poetry, by communicating through his eyes. When asked what its like to talk with his family and friends, he said, It is wonderful to tell them I love them.
Jonathans story is profoundly moving and leads me to consider how God unlocks us from the prison of sin. As the apostle Paul wrote to the Christians at Colossae, once we were alienated from God (Colossians 1:21), our evil behavior making us His enemy, but through Christs death on the cross we are now presented to God as holy in his sight (v. 22). We may now live a life worthy of the Lord as we bear fruit, grow in the knowledge of God, and are strengthened in His power (vv. 1011).
We can use our unlocked voices to praise God and share His good news that we are no longer bound to a life of sin. As we continue in our faith, we can hold firm to our hope in Christ.
Lord God, You have released us from our chains of unbelief and given us words to praise You. May we share this freedom with others for Your glory.
The Lord unlocks us from our prison of sin.
These few verses (Colossians 1:1323) in Pauls letter to the church at Colossae are a theological goldmine! In them we read about Jesuss relationship to GodHis kingship, redemption, and forgivenessand His role in creating and sustaining the universe. How amazing to see everything point to one thingour reconciliation to God (v. 22).
Why not praise God today for unlocking you from the prison of sin and reconciling you to Himself.

You can be quite academic in your approach to things. You are scholarly and bookish. You are high achieving. You perform well no matter what situation you're in.
You are resourceful and capable. You have an ingenious way of getting things done. You are very opinionated. And you never keep your opinions to yourself! |

I've been to a number of the "big things to see." They looked just like all the pictures I had already seen. In fact, some of the pictures were better. I was mostly disappointed. Climbing the dome in St. Peter's was good. The people and food were more interesting than the sightseeing.

Acropolis? Not me. I took a train trip from London to Hong Kong. Saw life as it changed from country to country. Worth crossing the world to see!

You are original in both your thoughts and actions. You think the status quo is boring. You are gentle and mild-mannered. You are open to what the world has to offer.
You attain mastery of whatever interests you. You are extremely sharp and a quick learner. You are inventive, creative, and completely ingenious. You are extremely gifted. |

It gave me: Acropolis.
Valid. I stayed over for a week alone in Rome after my first choir tour ended in 2005, at much added expense. I spent a week walking all over the town to get to know it.
I did not have the time or money to also see Athens.
