Scripture Time

7In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace 8that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. 9And he[a] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.
11In him we were also chosen,[
b] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.

We have redemption (the forgiveness of sins) through his blood. All things human and non will be brought together (united) in Christ. We are predestined. When we accept Christ the Holy Spirit comes to us and is a guarantee for our inheritance.

Father~ It's so awesome to think about your love for us. You knit us together in our mothers womb. You've written our name in the book of life and know when we will come to you. Thank you for your promises. In your name Amen.
