Why? and For?

Two devotionals I read last week presented different ideas; however, I thought they blended together pretty well to form one viewpoint. 

 

I picked up on a verse in one from Isaiah 64:8, “But now, O Lord, You are our (my) Father. We (I) am the clay, and You our (my) Potter; And all of us (I) are the work of Your hand.” 

 

The other devotional talked about different worldviews and why one matters, pointing toward Colossians 1:16, “For everything, absolutely everything, (me) above and below, visible and invisible…everything (me) got started in Him and finds its (my) purpose in Him.”  The author summed it up as:

 

“You (I) were made by God 

and FOR God”
