Hey Kids,
If the Bible comes straight from the Creator of the universe, preserved for ages, even translated for our ease, then it’s worth diving into.
Since I grasped God's grace, the Bible's taken on a whole new life for me. I used to see it like a car manual — handy when you need it, but kinda dry otherwise.
I can't pick a favorite verse; there are just too many gems! I always warn against cherry-picking verses; they lose their meaning out of context. But here's one I love:
"But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift." - Ephesians 4:7
Read it slow. Think about what Paul's saying. I've read it before, but it hit me differently recently.
Paul was talking to Christians in Ephesus, but I think it applies to us today. We've all been given grace, freely. Not earned. Given. That's beautiful.
And get this — it's not just a bit of grace. It's not just enough. It's more than we could ever deserve. It is so huge it can only be compared to Christ’s gift itself. It's immeasurable!
I love knowing this about Jesus. Don't you? Do you have a verse to share with me?
Love,
Dad
