Eph 2:1-22
Raised up with Christ and seated with him in the heavenly realms is a great distinction. His actions brought us from being spiritually dead to being spiritually alive—even though we are sinners.
I like fine art. I enjoy seeing people express their talents through their crafts. Experts can look at works of art and tell who the artist was. It amazes me that God considers me a work of quality. His work in me through Christ has given me a great distinctiveness. It is easy to dwell on the negatives of my life before Christ and forget that I am His workmanship, created for good works.
Christ’s blood sacrifice brings me near to him. As an artist’s work expresses his deepest thoughts and feelings, so we are brought close to Christ to be an expression of him. Closeness to be cherished and maintained through faith.
