Welcome,
This episode includes Ephesians 4 MSG.
What's your favorite road trip?
You know the one when you're driving with your best friend, and you're laughing so hard that you can't catch your breath. Possibly it's the trip when you are in the car with your family, singing along to your favorite songs.
When we travel with God, we can and do have a fantastic time! We get to see what He is doing and how He works in our lives and the world around us. And believers can't help but get excited about where God is taking us next!
When we're in the middle of our journey, it's hard to see what lies ahead.
But if we take the time to look back on the road behind us, we'll discover that God has been leading us very well all along.
Ephesians 4:1-6 is a beautiful passage of scripture that reminds us that we are God's children and that He is our Father in heaven. When we think of God as our Father, we want to do everything we can to please Him and let Him lead and take the reins.
The Apostle Paul says in verse 1: "Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called." KJV
I love this part because it tells us precisely what we need to do with our lives if we want to please God.
We can't just sit around - wish and wait for Him to give us something to do. We need to be actively involved in following after Him, doing what pleases Him rather than doing those things that please ourselves or others around us.
