Passage Read: Ephesians 3-4
Meditation Verse: 4:25
Thought
Because we belong to one another, so we must be honest with each other and speak the truth to each other. We must not deceive one another and we must not be fake with one another. We belong to each other, so we need to know the truth about each other.

Passage Read: Ephesians 1-2
Meditation Verses: 2:8-10
Thought
Interesting, Paul makes it clear in this chapter that we are not saved by our good works. We were dead in our sins and trespasses, we were children of wrath, we were separated and hopeless, doomed to destruction. There was nothing to commend us to God and no way we could be worthy of salvation. So God stepped in and saved us anyway, and made us a new creation that would do good works, which He prepares in advance for us to do.
