This was God’s plan for all of history which he carried out through Christ Jesus our Lord.
Let’s think about this: why do we look so hard for God’s plan for our lives/. We read books, listen to sermons, go to seminars in order to discover’s God’s plan for our lives and yet, we plainly read it in these verse that God’s plan to to save us in Christ.
Sometimes,I think that we put the cart before the horse in our faith by way of focusing on our place in the scheme of life instead of God’ overarching plan.
Now, listen, since this was God’s plan for all of history, what could happen if we spent more time reveling in the reality of His salvation for us…of His great love.
Then, when we put His plan for all of history first in our lives, when we desire it the most, then He will give us the desires of our heart.
