Today’s
scripture: Ephesians 2:4-7
Ah … God’s rich mercy!
He so delights in not giving us what we deserve; we were “dead in trespasses” from the moment we took our first breaths. In our sinfulness, we deserve eternal death and separation from our Lord and Savior.
But “because of His great love” for us, He offers grace: giving us what we don’t deserve.
Because of His love for us, we are “alive together in Christ.” We are “raised … together,” and we will one day “sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus …”
We will spend eternity in the presence of our triune God: Father, Son, and Spirit.
Our God is indeed “rich in mercy”!
