Ephesians 1:3-6

​“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him from before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance to His pleasure and Will —to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the One He loves.” Ephesians 1:3-6 (NIV)
 
God’s abundance and deep love is showcased in these verses. I am blown away. Here, we learn how God poured out every spiritual blessing in Christ over us. While God did not hold back his spiritual blessings, He also chose and set us apart from before the creation of the world. To know how God freely extends His love and grace to us without duty or obligation fills me with wonder and awe. Instead, it is out of His great love, Will, and pleasure that He has set us apart as His adopted children. This knowledge that the God of the universe cares for us, delights to please us, and wants to spend an eternity with us humbles me. Praise the Lord!
