Good Wednesday Morning!
How is everyone? It has been awhile, but I have gotten things back in perspective and here we go. :) It has been an interesting season for me and lots of things happening in my life and changes, but God is faithful! I have seen His Hand in everything and I praise Him for His love and His grace! We serve an awesome God!
Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Ephesians 2:1-10 ~ It's amazing how much time we spend chasing treasure that fades...and how little time pursuing the real treasure of God (vs 7).
Before Christ came into our lives, we were walking around in darkness. We were dead in our sin and continued to follow the ways of the world. Read verses 4 and 5 and think about the words: great love - us - God - rich - mercy - alive - Christ - GRACE - saved! "Because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is by grace you have been saved."
Wow! God loved us so much and continues to love us. It is like the most famous verse of the Bible - John 3:16. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."
If you read on in the passage in Ephesians, we find that we were raised with Christ and will have eternal riches and have received grace and salvation as a gift from God. We are God's workmanship! Think about it: God loved us so much that He created us to be His sons and daughters through His Son Jesus Christ - to do good works and show others His love and share the Great Message of His love with them, so that they too can become heirs and have the hope of eternal life with Him!
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! God is good ALL the time - ALL the time God is good!
Have a wonderful day and know that I have never stopped and will continue to pray for you! Enjoy the warmer spring weather!
Love and prayers!
Cheri Lynn
