EPH 1:4-8 NLT Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.
It’s hard for me to fully understand the depth of God’s heart and mind. It’s my limitation because my mind is just not developed enough to understand or even have the capacity to think back that far. I am starting to forget things that happened to me as a child. The mind of our God is so much greater. Even before the world began, God loved you and me. That’s a very very very long time ago.
Not only did God love us, but he chose us to be in relationship with him. It was premeditated adoption, through Jesus Christ.
I am a Child of the King.

I am chosen, I am free
I am Living for eternity
Free now forever
You picked me up, turned me around
You set my feet on solid ground
Yours now forever
And nothing’s gonna hold me back
Nothing’s gonna hold me back
Nothing’s gonna hold me back
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I’m alive to live for you
I’m alive to live for you
Amazing Love, how can it be?
You give everything for me
You give everything for me
Everything
You washed my sin and shame away
The slate is clean: a brand new day,
Free now forever
Now boldly I approach your throne
To claim this crown through Christ my own
Yours now forever
And nothing’s gonna hold me back
Nothing’s gonna hold me back
Nothing’s gonna hold me back
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I’m alive to live for you
I’m alive to live for you
Amazing Love, how can it be?
You give everything for me
You give everything for me
I’m free to live
Free to give
Free to be
I’m free to love you
