February is the month of celebrating love. Many expressions of love will be communicated throughout the coming days to those who are near and dear to us.
I would hope that we will also reflect on the love that God has for us. In our current message series we've looked at the many blessings that God has given out of His abundant love towards us - "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ." (Ephesians 1:3)
In the coming weeks we will also see that we are to love each other, as members of the Body of Christ. Paul is thankful to those Ephesians believers for their love for each other - "...ever since I heard about...your love for all God's people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you..." (Ephesians 1:15-16)
Remember, we are all encouraged to read the Book of Ephesians on a regular schedule as we work through this new series. One chapter a day (for about 2-3 minutes) is all you need to do: Monday, chapter 1; Tuesday, chapter 2; Wednesday, chapter 3; Thursday, chapter 4; Friday, chapter 5; Saturday, chapter 6.
Together, let's love God and love each other well in the days in which we live!
