For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything. For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven. (Colossians 1:13-20)

I have been reading over Colossians Ch. 1 everyday this week. The pre-eminence of Christ is such an encouraging thing to dwell upon.

Right now I am enjoying a darn good cup of coffee and a bagel at our school latest addition, Einstein Bros Bagels. My original intent was to study for my upcoming Critical Thinking exam but my mind has grown weary of it.

I realized today that Shepherds' Conference is only 3 1/2 weeks away! Flying to Cali. and spending a week at Grace Community with 3,000 pastor/teachers listening to the teachings of John MacArthur, John Piper, Phil Johnson, etc... is way worth missing a week of school.
