PRECIOUS

MALACHI 3:17 (CEV)
Then the LORD All-Powerful said:
You people are precious to me, and when I come to bring justice, I will protect you, just as parents protect an obedient child.


EPHESIANS 1:5 (CEB)
God destined us to be his adopted children through Jesus Christ because of his love. This was according to his goodwill and plan...

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Those who trust God begin to see that they are precious to him.

PRAYER
Generous God, thank you for welcoming me into your family. I don't deserve your favor. But I confess that I take it for granted. Help me to see even more ways that your grace intersects with my life. I'm going to live according to it and under your good care. Amen.
