Separated from God's Love? Why? Who moved? Ephesians 4:1,2

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!
   How strong are we individually?  How strong are we as a collective group?  Look at Germany, on Aug. 13, 1961, Berlin was divided as East Germany sealed off the border between the city's eastern and western sectors in order to halt the flight of refugees.
    Can you imagine the separation between you and your loved ones?  Living in the same city, yet unable to communicate and visit with them.  How often do we build a barrier between us and a loved one?
   Even worse, how often do we build a barrier between us and God---God's love.  Who built it?  NOT GOD!  If you are separated from God's love you walk in a foreign and barren land.  Where God's love is not -- there is darkness, evil, coldness!
   Ephesians 4:1 "Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the LORD, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God."
    Ephesians 4:2  "Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love."
  God has CHOSEN YOU to be CHRIST'S REPRESENTATIVE on earth.  Paul challenges YOU to LIVE LIVES WORTHY of the calling we have received.  You are Christ's very own. Rejoice, be remain as verse 2 states.  Easy to retaliate and cast stones back.  When feeling this way revert back to Ephesians 4:2.   Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
