For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love — Eph 1:4 BSB

This world isn’t random—it’s our Father’s world.

Events don’t just happen without order or direction. No one can seriously doubt that there is a divine plan that spans the ages, guiding all things and experiences.

Our Scripture passage is filled with this truth. “He chose us in Him (in Christ) before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy.” “Having predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ.” “Predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will.”

We don’t need to fully understand these deep words. But we can take comfort in knowing they assure us of God’s divine love, mercy, and purpose for us from eternity past through all ages.

This truth guarantees our eternal safety in Christ our Redeemer.
