Timing Is Everything

When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 

Colossians 2:13

Timing is everything. This is especially awesome when we consider our salvation, our adoption into the family of God, and our acceptance into the kingdom. 

God didn't make us alive with Christ after we repented and performed several acts of contrition. The Holy Spirit, the Hound of Heaven, didn't wait for us to confess our sins and faith in Christ before he started drawing us to Christ. Our Heavenly Father didn't see us come bow our heads at some revival, camp, our church service and decide to let us into the family. 

Timing is everything. God choose us first. When we were dead in our sins and the uncircumcision of our flesh he made us alive with Christ. God's grace, his love, his amazing love is shown to us in that we didn't deserve his love yet when we were least deserving he was most gracious and merciful. He forgave us all our sins. 

In the kingdom of God, God's timing is everything. When we were dead in our sins He forgave us all our sins. That's grace, that's God,

that's amazing!
