I re-read one of my favorite passages this week. This time when reading I read the study notes in my NLT bible that help us dive deeper. I loved it and wanted to share it with you. It's a simple self check but a great challenge to us.
"Therefore, I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling for you have been called by God." Ephesians 4:1
Notes:
God has chosen us to be Christ's representatives on earth. In light of this truth, the apostle Paul (author) challenges us to live lives worthy of the calling we have received-the awesome privilege of being called Christ's very own. This includes being humble, gentle, patient, understanding, and peaceful.
People are watching your life. Can they see Christ in you? How well are you doing as Christ's representative?
Praying for us all to live a life worthy of God's calling.
