The gospel of Paul is reflected in the book of Ephesians, chapters one and two.  Paul speaks of the grace and peace that come from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  He reminds me of who I am and whom I belong to.

I Am

I am blessed; I am chosen.

I am beloved; I am redeemed.

I am forgiven by Christ’s death on the cross.

I am sealed with the Holy Spirit.

I have wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God.

I am loved; I am saved by grace.

I am a unique being created in Christ to do good works.

Through Him, I have a personal relationship with God.

For all of these things and much more, I am a child of God.
