Welcome

One of the most effective ways to allow the Word of God to affect your life is to study it inductively. That is what this blog is all about. Typically one verse per day will be mined for insight and then followed up with how I plan to implement that insight practically. My prayer is that in some way you find this useful in your journey and that it may impact you positively. -G

Ephesians 1:8

8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding,

LAVISH- Websters 1828 dictionary definition
1. Prodigal; expending or bestowing with profusion; profuse. He was lavish of expense; lavish of praise; lavish of encomiums; lavish of censure; lavish of blood and treasure.
2. Wasteful; expending without necessity; liberal to a fault.
3. Wild; unrestrained.
Curbing his lavish spirit.

The grace and forgiveness of God is abundantly poured out on us.

While we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

With all wisdom and understanding even how wretched we are and will continue to be He still not only offers his grace but pours it out lavishly.

My prayer is to not take this grace for granted as is my pattern. That the HS would keep me mindful of His great love for me.
