October 3 – Undying Love

“Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.” Ephesians 6:24 (NIV)

Although this promise was written to the body of believers in Ephesus 2000 years ago, we believe this promise is also for us today. The grace given to us by God is a wonderful gift and we know that grace is actually undeserved favor from God. We have done nothing to earn it. God is all  knowing and he does pay attention to our actions and also he knows very well the attitudes of our hearts. He gives us, through his grace, our ability to love the Lord Jesus Christ with all our heart and with an undying love. We respond with that ability and practice that love and we receive more grace. Not because we have done good things and deserve it but because we believe and receive it freely from the hand of God.
