"In him we have redemption through his blood," Ephesians 1:7.
Him, who? God. In God. Redemption. That's what we have received from God. Redeemed by his blood. Whose blood? God's blood. Not God's personal blood, of course. (We remember God is spirit, not flesh.) The blood, that is, the death that God provided as our ransom. So (again) whose blood? Jesus's. God provided Jesus for us. And God lavished his grace. Lavished? Yes. Exceeded. Abounded. Excessived. Overflowed. Grace. Upon grace. We are swept up together in his river of generosity.
We visit with a brother or sister today treading together in God's fathomless pool of grace. And together we give thanks to him for such forgiveness.
