Perfectly Aligned

 

“…to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.”

—Ephesians 1:10b

Many things in life don't work properly unless they are in perfect alignment. Tires, for example, will not wear properly and supply a long and useful life if they are out of alignment.

In living our daily lives, we can become out of alignment with God's perfect will for us. This leaves us in a very dysfunctional state.

Fortunately, the Apostle Paul declares a solution to our alignment problem. He writes the following words in Ephesians 1:9-10:

…he (God) made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.

We can rejoice this day that God brings all things into unity, or into alignment, with His perfect will through the life-transforming power of our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

And that's where we want to be—perfectly aligned in the center of His will.
