Good morning, everyone!
Today I read Ephesians 1-3. This is Paul's letter to the church at Ephesus. This letter was written while he was in prison.
I just want to share a few verses with you today.
Ephesians 1:3-6 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.
God adopted us through Jesus. He chose us before time. We are His, and He has blessed us with spiritual blessings.
Isn't that a wonderful thought? Life isn't easy, but we can always rest in the promises of God. He is faithful to His own, and we are His.
Paul goes on to encourage the church of Ephesus, so I encourage you to read the rest of today's reading for yourselves. I just wanted to share a small portion of what I read today.
I have been finding more and more verses lately that give me hope even when the world seems so dark. I hope you will as well.
I also hope that you'll join me tomorrow when I read Ephesians 4-6.
