Fellow Heirs

Hey ya'll! So today I dove into my daily devotions and read Ephesians 3. It was a really good reassuring and positive passage. In chapter 3 Paul talks about how everyone is rightful heirs and partakers in the promise that Jesus gave to us after dying for our sins, which really encourages me and makes me realize that everyone around us, because of God's grace and love, can receive the promise of salvation, and we should stop at no measures to spread the Good Word.  Paul then goes on to encourage us that because we are grounded and rooted in his love we have the strength to comprehend the immeasurable dimensions of the love that Christ has for us. Love is the natural outcome of living in Christ and living in Christ gives us Godliness which leads us to a greater understanding of God and his works. Overall Paul really hits home that everyone - whether you don't think they deserve it - can receive the gift that God offers to us and has just as much right to the gift as you do. And that by be rooted in him (living for him), love is that natural outcome of a living faith that is grounded in Christ as well as having a better understanding of his love for us. Hope this is encouraging!
