<p>This beautiful text says volume if we can believe it. It says:</p>

<li>You are blameless before God</li>

<!-- /wp:list-item -->

<!-- wp:list-item -->

<li>You are Holy before God</li>

<!-- wp:list-item -->

<li>You are faultless before God</li>

<!-- /wp:list-item -->

<li>You are irreprochable before God</li>

<!-- /wp:list-item -->

<!-- wp:list-item -->

<li>You are special before God</li>

<!-- /wp:list-item --></ul>

<p>Why is this possible for God to do this? It is because in Christ Jesus, God loved you first and chose you out for Himself as a special one of a kind person! You were chosen for the generation you were born and with the unique proclivities and gifts you have been endued with to serve that generation. Your birth is not a happenstance or a mistake as there are no two of you in the universe!</p>

<p>When did He actually do this? Before He formed the world! What does that even mean? *It means that God’s choice of you and His love for you and how He sees you (Holy, blameless, faultless etc) predates your birth! No! It predates the foundation of the world! *</p>

<p>Before God flung the stars in space, before He hung the earth in space and before He said “let there be light”, you were in His mind. You were and still are the object of His love and attention!</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->

<p>You were made for love, made by love and made to be loved hence why He calls you: “My beloved”</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->

<p>Dare to&nbsp;believe&nbsp;that!</p>
