Ephesians 3:20

This afternoon, the girls and I returned from another week of cleaning and organizing at Mom’s. (We also got into some painting this time as well as a little decorating.) I’ve been thankful for the recent opportunities to go up and try to be a blessing to Mom. And, I feel I need to say this – Bethany and Anna have been quite the troopers! I am very thankful for all the help they have been to me and their MawMaw!

I wanted to share a special blessing the Lord gave me while up there this week. On Wednesday evening, we went to my sister’s church for their midweek service. The pastor was preaching from Ephesians and ended his message by talking about Ephesians 3:20,21

Back at my sister’s house that evening, Anna was looking up a particular verse on my phone and informed me that the “verse for the day” was Ephesians 3:20.

The next morning, my sister was talking to Mom on the phone and asked her to pick a couple of her favorite verses for me to print and frame for one of her walls. Her usual response was the normal – “Oh, there are so many…” but she finally named Romans 8:28 and…Ephesians 3:20.

In a 12-14 hour time period, the Lord had “given me” the same verse three times. Now, those who know me very well will know that this particular verse is very special to me. It is a verse I go to very often. It is a verse I often put below when signing my name. It is a verse to which I cling.

This week, it was a verse I needed to hear. The Lord knew that. I am very thankful for His love for me. What a personal God!
