Re:Verse passage – Ephesians 1:15-23(day six)
Yesterday’s discovery must be sought anew today. Yesterday’s rich are today’s poor, and only as the poor will they become rich again. –Karl Barth, The Epistle to the Ephesians
We never graduate from the blessings in Ephesians 1:3-14; we never move onto something more or more profound or more fulfilling. Every day, we return to the deep, satisfying well of what God accomplished in Christ.
This is how Paul prays for the church (for us): that we would see and know to our bones that God has already provided all we need to grow up in Jesus, to experience his power. We have only to return to it each day.
