18And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.
christ comes first. god comes first. and he is lord of all of us--that which holds our universe together. without god, where would we be? nothing. less than we are now even. for now we are children of god, but without him, we're completely purposeless and aimless. dead.
theres a lot of hope and strength that can come from an awareness of the power which our god holds. today, i think that primary power is that to guide me and keep me faithful to him because my heart is heavy with not sad thoughts necessarily or even serious thoughts, but heavy with basically wayyy too many thoughts. its not healthy, i don't think and so i really like him. he's like a demigod type. the all around kind of guy but being preoccupied like this is bad. its essentially a man crush because he's so awesome and basically after getting to know him better I'm in complete awe. not just that, but all i wanna do is be great friends with him and hope that i can absorb awesomeness if nothing else. regardless, that doesn't sound healthy. mostly because probably nothing will ever come out of it.
and so i turn to the Lord for strength in maintaining scholarly focus through distraction. he is supreme over everything--including this sort of thing.
