When we read the last book of the Bible, we recognize that Jesus is both the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end (Revelation 22:13). Every book of the Bible points to Jesus Christ, which is what Paul explained in these verses.

Creation has always been about Jesus. He is the center of it all. He was the Word with God in the beginning, spinning galaxies into existence. He will be the center when all is said and done. Since Jesus is the center, Lord, and goal of all creation, it makes sense that life works best when He controls it.

• How does all of life change when Jesus is at the center?
• What are some ways you see Him at the center of your life today?
