It was he who gave some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service… so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ (Eph. 4:13).
Someday
We’ll get there someday.
We have his promise on that.
All the junk we deal with now–the selfishness, the bitterness, the envy, the greed, the backbiting, the insecurity, the indecision, the inadequacy, the sadness, the anger, the agonizing, all-consuming fear…
were gonna grow out of that
and
into Christ.
I think Someday might just be my favorite day ever.
Happy Friday, Beloved
I love this verse. It gives me hope for my own weirdness. There must be a reason that I am the way I am. He has called me for a purpose that doesn’t look like other people’s purpose…and He is maturing me in mine, no matter that it looks different someone else’s.
Good word, my friend.
