How Do You Do It

The pre-eminence of Jesus, this was what I learned 18 days ago. Everything was created from and for Jesus.We came from Him and must learn to return everything to Him . . . through Him, with Him and in Him.

He makes Himself known to us with the different acts of His Will, with as many things He has created for us, placing His Will in all these created things. He did this so we can relate all created things to His Will, be reminded of His Will at all times as we see all of these, the very purpose of which is for us
to preserve His Will in us. He is helping us in keeping His Will in us. The final act remains with us, to offer our own Will in exchange for His and in the process fusing the human will and the Divine Will so that we do everything for Him, through Him, with Him and in Him.

But how in the world do we do this? Just be open. Ephphata! Mark 7:31-37

Colossians 1:15-20
Brothers and sisters, Christ Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For in him were created all things in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things were created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. He is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he himself might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile all things for him, making peace by the blood of his cross through him, whether those on earth or those in heaven.
