Belonging while becoming - Ephesians 4
In a world pulling us toward isolation, God invites us into something radically different: the shared life of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Technology has made independence possible, but we weren't designed to flourish alone. Jesus said it clearly in John 15:9-12 - "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Love each other as I have loved you." This isn't just a command; it's an invitation into the very relationship that exists within the Trinity itself. Here's the beautiful truth: you don't have to become perfect to belong. You belong while you're becoming. The Father draws us in, the Son makes belonging possible, and the Holy Spirit holds us together through humility, gentleness, and patience. Real growth happens in the honest, loving relationships of community - speaking truth in love, bearing with one another, protecting the unity God has already built. The challenge isn't whether we belong. It's whether we're willing to live like we do - together.
From Series: "Belonging"
We are all citizens of Heaven and if you looked at our passport, our home nation wouldn't be Britain it would be Heaven. We are made in God's image and that because God is part of the Trinity - our DNA is designed for connection - and that is why we long for belonging.
