But God was merciful! We were dead because of our sins, but God loved us so much he made us alive with Christ, and God's gift of undeserved grace is what saves you. God raised us from death to life with Christ Jesus, and he has given us a place beside Christ in heaven. God did this so in the future world he could show how truly good and kind he is to us because of what Christ Jesus has done. You were saved by faith in God, who treats us much better than we deserve. This is God's gift to you, and not anything you have done on your own. It isn't something you have earned, so there is nothing you can brag about. God planned for us to do good things and to live as he has always wanted us to live. This is why he sent Christ to make us what we are.
Ephesians 2:4-10
Have you ever heard someone say: "God has a wonderful plan for your life?"
That certainly is true, but you must understand the word "Wonderful." Perhaps it would be better said that God has a "Wonder Filled" plan for your life!
As a follower of Jesus you will see things that no one else will see. You will feel the Holy Spirit come into your heart and mind and control you in every way. You will see things greater than the "7 Wonders of the World" in the lives of those around you who also love Jesus!
Your life will be Wonder Filled! You will not question the existence of miracles today, because all around you, all the time you will see the miraculous power of God working!
"Lord Jesus, You are the Wonder of my life! Nothing compares to knowing You and having You, Jesus as my Lord and Shepherd, forever! Praise Your Holy and Righteous Name, now and always! Amen!"
