ASLC Devotions - Friday

Ephesians 3:20-21 Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

Yesterday I wrote to you (as if those of you who actually know me needed a reminder) that I am subject to weakness. We all are. And this prayer and blessing that Paul offers to the people of Ephesus is the reason I can, in my weakness, continue to humbly serve and proclaim the gospel. Because God is at work in me and in you. Without God's working in my life, I'd literally be nothing.

And not only is God at work in me, God is at work doing things in and through my life (and yours) that I could never imagine on my own. I simply pray each day for God to do something in and through my life that is God's will, whether or not I can see it. That's my prayer for you today as well: may God work in you far more than you can ever hope or imagine.

In Christ,
Pastor Seth
