Have you ever felt like you didn’t belong? Like you weren’t good enough or didn’t live up to the standards that either you or other people had set? In Ephesians 2, we will learn that this is not something that is new to our world. We will see how all were once separated from Christ, not originally included in the promises of God, but that Jesus made a way to extend the invitation to belong to the family of God for ALL people, including me and you!

Moses grows up caught between cultures, uncertain where he belongs. After a rash decision he flees to the wilderness of Midian where God begins forming him through obscurity, patience, and waiting long before his calling fully comes into focus.
As I have been approaching Father’s Day, I have been thinking about God the Father. How I am his child, how we all are children of God. How is it then that Jesus is called God’s only Son? Are we not children of God? Why does John in one of the most familiar New Testament passages, from John 3:16. Call Jesus his only Son? I want to explore the beauty of how we have become children of God.
