”Safe in the Father’s Love” Ephesians 1:5-6 by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

One of the great sources of anxiety that we all face is the feeling that our lives seem to be spinning out of control. Whether we feel like our destiny is being determined by unpredictable forces of nature, inherited DNA, unjust political or military powers, technological advances like AI, spiraling health and housing costs, or worse, demonic and evil forces, Paul reminds the church at Ephesus that their lives and destinies are safe in the hands of sovereign love. 

This week’s sermon was called “Safe in the Father’s Love.” In Ephesians 1:5-6, the Word of God reminds us that our lives are never spiraling out of control. For the Christian, life is resting in the care of a God who brings us into His family through Christ at the expense of His Son and ensures our future together as one forever family under Christ. We are loved with everlasting love. We share a common destiny. We are forever the family of God. What joins us together is our adoption in Christ. Let’s gather and be reminded that we are safe in the Father’s hands. Invite a friend and let’s rejoice as one family together to the praise of the glory of God’s grace.

In Christ,
Kevin Dibbley, Senior Pastor
