Brought Near

Eph. 2

God, who is rich in mercy, loves me greatly. Even when I was dead in sin against God, he brought me to life again with Christ Jesus. He raised me up together with Christ and made me to sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.  In this way, God, my father, you have shown me the exceeding riches of your grace and your kindness toward me through Christ Jesus.

For by grace I have been saved through faith; and even that is not of myself. It is a gift from you; not by any of my works so that I do not boast.  I thank you that I am your masterpiece, created for good works that you, father, ordained before hand that I would walk in in Christ. Now in Christ Jesus I once was far from you, father, but now I am brought near you in Christ.  God, the father, son and holy spirit dwell in me. Hallelujah!
