for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together.
- Colossians 1:16-17

Father, thank You that all things were created through Christ and for Him, and that He holds everything together by His word. Shape us into people who see the universe as His and let us live to glorify Him.
