Ephesians 2:6
And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.
Thank you, Father, for raising me from the dead and giving me new, different and everlasting LIFE. Thank you for the seat you have assigned me.
I didn’t pick this seat. You selected it for me.
I’m sorry for all the times I compare my seat with others’, longing for a different one. Forgive me for the many times I get out of my seat, just like those squirmy boys in my French class.
Help me to trust that You know just what I need in a seat.
May I practice sitting contentedly in my seat. After all, I’m going to be spending a long time next to my older Brother and knowing how kind and loving You are, I bet my seat will turn out to be just the one I would have picked out had I known all the facts. Amen.
