“OUR FAMILY!”
Ephesians 3:14-15
“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named.”
Family is an interesting concept. Sometimes families live near each other and visit frequently. Sometimes they are separated by many miles and rarely see each other. Several years ago my wife’s cousin Millie and her husband David stopped by for a visit. Joyce and Millie talked up a storm as they reminisced through their family relationships.
While the two cousins were bonding, David and I were discovering that we too were related. Can you believe that?! What a discovery! Not only were we related, but we were brothers! No, we did not have the same mother and father, but were part of the much closer family of God!
After David and Millie left, Joyce made a profound observation. She said that even though she had never lived close to Millie, and even though it had been some thirty years since she had last seen her, as they talked they drew close because of the family they both shared.
The few hours we spent with Millie and David was such a time of warmth and joy that we hated to see them leave. It made me think of the joy we will experience in heaven when we see members of the family that we never knew existed.
Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
