Ephesians 1:7-10: "In Him we have the redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace, which He lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of His will, according the His purpose, which He set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unity all things in Him, things in heaven and things on earth."
The above passage, while brimming with a density of theology, can be simply contracted into a single phrase: God has saved us in Christ Jesus because of His good pleasure and according to His divine plan. To be sure, the solidity of this assertion has a heaviness that boggles both the mind and heart. However, for today, I will simple say: "Amen!"
