Ephesians 2:1
New Living Translation

“Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins.”

For Meditation

“Once you were dead…”  
This is where it all starts – The beginning of our redemption story. 

Once we forget this truth – if we lose sight of this – our Christian life becomes a joke. We take God’s grace for granted. We devalue our salvation and live as entitled children.  

Recognizing this truth, however, is wisdom and humbling. It allows us to be forever thankful to God for His mercy and grace expressed through our Lord Jesus Christ. We value our salvation and strive to please him in everything.

So, how does knowing this truth affect your relationship with Christ and lifestyle? How can you appreciate him today?

Shalom
