“But even before I was born, God chose me and called me by his marvelous grace.” Galatians 1:15 NLT
God, this is an amazing and humbling truth to try to take in. Even if this truth were for Paul alone You tell us over and over in Your word that every moment of our lives are known by You and every hair on our heads has it’s number. We’re given even more to think about in Ephesians 1:11-14 and even the simple reminder that You are the Creator of the Universe and all things seen and unseen is enough to be awed and inspired by Your greatness, Your majesty and Your splendor. Thank You Father for choosing to sacrifice Your one and only pure and sinless Son Jesus that we may have eternal life. Thank You for opening my eyes to this today and I pray that You will put this truth and the same awe and wonder in the hearts of my brothers and sisters today as well. Please shine the light of Your glorious face upon us and warm us with the splendor of Your presence. Please Father, show us each Your faithfulness, love, graciousness, mercy, and goodness in a personal and amazing way today and as we carry on through this week. I love You and all thanks and praise belong to You. It is in the glorious name of Christ Jesus I pray. AMEN
