November 03/19 NO CONDITIONS

We will continue our study of the Canons by reflecting on Ephesians 1:1-14, No Conditions.  In most of our relationships, we are loved or accepted because of something that we bring into the relationship.  When the relationship becomes too costly, it’s common to end the relationship and find new ones that fit us better and bring something of value into our lives.  Our relationship with God is different.  We have nothing to offer God, he has no reason at all to want a relationship with us, and yet he chooses us to be his children.  He gives us his love without any conditions, taking away our worry about not bringing anything into our relationship with God.
