The halfbaked Bard

I urge you to live a life worthy of your calling. Eph:4:1 Called by the Almighty Eternal God. Called out of the miry clay, from that deep pit. Called into a great salvation Called into the everloving Father's bosom. Called for eternity. Live a life worthy of it. Not as a failure. You're now His child. Live a life worthy of it. You're now His possession. Live a life worthy of it. Nothing can separate me from His love. And now there is no condemnation. Live a life worthy of it. Thankfull; filled with His love;  keeping yourself humble; loving one another.

Eph:3:20 Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine according to His power that is at work within us. If this is true, then why do I live a life full of concerns and fears about the uncertainties of the future. Of the things which are out of my control. He has got it under control, because He has created it. Then worry is disrespectful. Because He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine according to His power. Pour out your fears to the Solid Rock. Vocalize it. He will take care for sure, for He cares. Trust Him. Firmly believe that He is enough. Lean not on your own understanding. Find your security in your Father who is able. 'Able' covers everything. Able is enough. Able is security. Able is satisfying to the core. He is able, more than able, to accomplish what concerns me today He is able, more than able, to handle anything that comes me way, He is able, more than able, to do much more than I could ever dream, He...

Being rooted and established in love. Eph:3:17 Be rooted and established in love. In the love of God. In the unending, limitless love of God. So that, this love will overflow. Be rooted and established is the key word here. Not just know or experience or feel. Be rooted. Be sure. Be immersed in it. His love is always there around you. You need to be sure about it. Not doubting. Oh the deep deep love of Jesus Vast unmeasured, boundless, free Rolling as a mighty ocean  In its fullness over me Underneath me, all around me Is the currant of thy Love Leading onward, leading homeward To Thy glorious rest above.

In Him and through faith in Him, we may approach God with freedom and confidence. Eph:3:12. Earlier the Almighty God was inapproachable. People needed Moses or the high priest or the prophets to communicate with this holy God. Job:9:33/35. If only there was a mediator between us, someone who could bring us together. Then I could speak to Him without fear. But I cannot do that on my own strength. People were afraid of this God. But now I can come to the presence of this same God with freedom and confidence through Jesus Christ. He is the One mediator, between man and God, because He is man and He is God. He has all attributes of God, yet He understands me and my struggles because He is man as well.  He is the only mediator, for He is the only one thus. I can approach this inapproachable God, the Father, only through Jesus Christ. He is not just one of the mediators, but the only one. Yes, He is the mediator, but in no way, He is inferior to the Father. Though He is calle...

Eph:3:6 The mystery is that through the gospel, the gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together in the promise in Christ Jesus. Gentiles are non Jewish people. The non chosen ones. The people who had no business with knowing God. Destined to go after the futile ways, seeking other gods. But now chosen to hold hands in the knowledge of the one true God. No difference. Included in the fold. I am that gentile. I have been chosen. I have been redeemed. I have been saved. Image credit: https://in.pinterest.com/kyndalchiles/friends-holding-hands/

Eph:2:20 Christ Jesus Himself as the chief cornerstone. Base your life on Jesus as the chief cornerstone. Not based on anything else apart from the Word of God. Because in you dwells the Holy Spirit. How do you base it? Through an intimate relationship with Him. His teachings; His standards, let it control your life. But not as a dead teacher's futile words. Not an ideology He wanted to follow in vain. No. He is alive. And He lives in you. He has promised that He will be with you till the end of days. That is the uniqueness. He is alive. He relates. He loves. Base it on Him. Base it on His unending love. Nothing else. The rain came down, the streams rose and the winds blew and best against  it yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation in the rock.
