This passage is from Paul’s letter to the Colossian Christ-followers. It’s an incredible description of Jesus. Paul didn’t spare any details. Take a second to go back and read the passage again.

We are called to love God with all our heart. Sometimes it’s hard to wrap our brain around who God is. Paul told us that Christ is God. We can look at Jesus and observe and see God.

Knowing this, what can we say about the role Christ plays when it comes to leading us to love God above all things?

If you were to consider Jesus and His life as your roadmap to knowing and following God, how would you go about living this out? How might you begin to apply Jesus’ example to your life?
