A Holiday Story Continued...

Yesterday was M...

E: Ephesians 1:4 says "For he chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In
love He predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will to the of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the One He loves." 

It says before the world was created. That means before Adam, before Eve, even before satan thought of taking the form of a serpent, God made a conscientious choice to sacrifice His son, Jesus Christ, for the choices men and women would make.
So this season is not about you getting all the gifts you want. It's about accepting the free gift He has already given to us. Your best present will never be under the tree. The best present in the world is in your heart--should you choose to accept.
God had a plan for your salvation before He ever breathed life into anyone's body. How thoughtful...

Soli Deo Gloria,

Step Brown
