Signed, Sealed & Delivered || Ephesians 1 || [P.1]


|| Ephesians 1 ||
[ P.1]  


 HEY Ladies!

So we will travel a 3 part journey through the first book of Ephesians. So much goodness up in there!
Tomorrow we will have a writer sharing a bit of where her journey is taking her as she has been traveling through Ephesians.. 
Let us know where God is taking you on this journey through Ephesians by posting on the blogs comment space.
 Again, life is more beautiful when we do it together!


Lets Dig in!

There are seasons in life where no matter what season in, the season is FULL. Whether a student who's life seems full with studies, guys, friendships, going out.. it is full.
A working woman, who's job seems to fill much of life's space..it is full. Or a stay at home mama with young kids...it is full. These seasons, may be filled with joy, sleepless nights ,  barley making it or just feeling lifeless...it is full. 

Paul writes in Ephesians 1 that "God had us in mind as He was planning the beauty of the universe..." (emphesis mine)
 Stop and think about this for a moment. We are constantly on His mind "before the foundations of the earth were laid...We are the focus of His love." 
Soak this in. Praise Him. Thank Him. We are the thought on His mind...to bring Him glory forever. 
To be made whole and holy by the One he loves, Jesus Christ.

So, in the season of FULL... be reminded that "We are the focus of His love... being made whole during each season.. becoming more like His son..."

Today, be intentionally watchful as the days goes...my he be the focus of our love.


Father God, I pray that as it is said that we are the focus of your love, because of Jesus, we are being made whole. May you stir our affections for you. Stealing our focus from the fullness of the season to focusing on your deep love and affection. 
So we may know you and make you known.
Amen.
