From Him to Me

From Him to Himself

And For Him

And Because of Him

And In Him

And To Him

And without Him

Emptiness



"He was Supreme in the beginning and - leading the resurrection parade - he is supreme in the end. From beginning to end he's there, towering far above everything, everyone. So spacious is he, so roomy, that everything of God finds its proper place in him without crowding. Not only that, but all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe - people and things, animals and atoms - get properly fixed and fit together in vibrant harmonies, all because of his death,his blood that poured down from the Cross."

- Paul the Apostle to the Colossians
