At church right now we've been studying the book of Ephesians. I've been super struck by the language that draws us into God's family, into wholeness and completeness with Him. How Jesus reunites us with Christ in perfect unity.
"So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son." Ephesians 1:6
God loved us even before He made the world, and he chose us in Christ to be holy. How cool that He has chosen us.
I have spent my life believing a lot of lies. A lot of days of feeling unworthy. Unloved. Unaccepted. Unwanted. And the truth of God's choice in selecting me as his adopted daughter is the truth that I speak daily over my broken and hurting soul. You are chosen. You are loved. You were handpicked before time began to be a part of God's family.
From everything I am, and everything I'll be
You ransomed me
From everything I've done and all that divided me
You rescued me
There is nothing that is too big that I have done, that I will do. Christ's blood has paid the ransom for my soul.
Together as one body
No matter who we've been
Adopted by our Father
And given life again
We are adopted by the Father and given life again. Claim this truth over your life today. Live knowing that you have been chosen, before first pick, to belong on His team.
Before the dawn of creation
You have chosen me
You have chosen me
You brought me into your family
You have chosen me
You have chosen me
From everything I am, and everything I'll be
You ransomed me
From everything I've done and all that divided me
You rescued me
So I praise You, God
For the glory of Your grace
Poured out on me
By the One who took my place
You will unite us together
For your perfect plan
You have chosen us
You are above all in power
You have chosen us
You have chosen us
For everything You are, will always be enough
You ransomed us
From everything we've done and all that divided us
You rescued us
So we praise You, God
For the glory of Your grace
Poured out on us
By the One who took our place
Together as one body
No matter who we've been
Adopted by our Father
And given life again
So we praise You, God
For the glory of Your grace
Poured out on us
By the One who took our place
Who took our place
