All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.  Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes.  Ephesians 1:3-4 (NLT)

Something new lends itself to discovery each morning this summer.  When the waters from the high tide recede, they leave all kinds of sea creatures behind on the beach, or in the creek.

The change is exciting because something new is always present, and it’s presence is always a fun surprise.

Regardless of our discoveries, the sun consistently rises and sets each day around us.

Through this time of intense change in our lives we have found, Change is certain. Christ is constant.

God remains the same, and in Him, so do we.

How are Believers in Christ? They are in Christ as their Representative. Charles Spurgeon

Remember who you are.

You are BELOVED, which means dearly loved.

God’s love for you did not begin at birth, or even at conception.

According to His Word, you have been dearly loved since the beginning of time.

Then you had your “birthday!” {The specific time in HisStory when you where born.}

For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb. Psalm 139:13

And you became BELOVED to your parents, who have loved you since your sweet pink skin was held close to their bodies, and they could feel your heartbeat for the first time.

Regardless of where you are – you are BELOVED.
Regardless of what you do – you are BELOVED.
Regardless of how you feel – you are BELOVED.

God loves you with an everlasting love – from the beginning of time to the end of time you. are. BELOVED.

God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.  Ephesians 1:5 (NLT) 

God loves you so much that He let his Son die for you.

Christ’s blood covers our sins, so that we are holy and without fault in our Father’s eyes.

May your heart find rest in the truth of His Word – in Christ you are His BELOVED child.

But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. John 1:12 (NLT)

Remember who YOU are: BELOVED
