VERSE OF THE WEEK
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us… has made us alive together with Christ. – Ephesians 2:4-5
Fully Living Life
As we approach summertime, the grass grows taller, flowers are blooming, the birds have built their nests and their chicks are hatching. The combination of sunshine and showers cultivates growth and the flora and fauna literally spring to life! The Lord sustains all of creation, providing life and breath to all creatures. To humans, He provides the ability to think, to reason, and to pray. Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount, “He makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust“ (Matthew 5:45). God has graciously provided what you need to fulfill His purpose for you on this earth. Reflecting His love, goodness, and mercy is one of those purposes. Ask the Lord today to lead you in helping others know Him better.
