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 2:10 - The Lord's Piece de Resistance

10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

piece de resistance - the outstanding item (the prize piece or main exhibit) in a collection, collector's item highlight in a collection or showpiece.


Humankind is the ultimate crown of God's creation. Being made in His image we have the complexities of self awareness and most importantly the capacity of free will, which sets us totally apart from all other created beings. With that free will the most astounding ability we posess is that we  are capable of loving one another. This is why the whole of the law and the prophets is summed up in the golden command to love one another because we alone have this capacity, and as we do we reflect God's most intrinsic characteristic, love.


APPLICATION
To find ways to be more loving today, to seek God for His Spirit to be this.
