For all the saints

This past Sunday we celebrated All Saints day, where we remember the members of Joy and loved ones that have passed on. Part of the epistle lesson was Ephesians 1:15 -16:  “For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.” Over the years I have met many people in my life that have helped shape my faith in God . My youth director at church, my pastor, my friends and, most of all, my parents . When I reflect on all the life lessons I received from them, I am truly grateful. I think we all need to reflect on how important these “saints” have been in our Christian walks. Read ephesians 1. Remember: God loves you unconditionally!
