"In the beginning God created...." (Genesis 1:1)
"In the beginning was the Word...He was in the beginning with God..." (John 1:1-2)
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him." (Ephesians 1:3-4)
There was a lot going on in the beginning!
Did you know you were chosen in Him before the foundation of the world to be His child? Did you realize that? That is how loved and special you are to Him! Before the foundation of the world...you were chosen! Keep that in mind today as you go through your day; keep that huge piece of truth close to your heart - however mundane your tasks may be today - YOU were chosen in Him before the foundation of the world! You are loved by Him! You are special to Him! You are the apple of His eye!
Ahh.. Thanks for that awesome reminder Lorelei! It brightened my day!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, Hannah! I need that reminder often myself! Seems like it is so easy to start thinking negative thoughts about oneself, or to get beaten down by the world - but God sees us so differently, and loves us so immensely! Blows my mind every time!
