19 June 2016; Eph 4

God called us. Wow. At times I do feel that I am not worthy of the call. I continue to sin and fall into sin and it seem never able to get perfect.

But it is God who call us and consider us worthy of the calling. It is by grace and mercy that we are turned around.

Unity in the Body of Christ I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, (Ephesians 4:1 ESV)

The context for therefore is from Eph 3, the gospel has been made known, God has called us, gave us the wealth be filled with all the fullness of God.

Paul therefore implore us to walk in a manner worthy of the calling. Just as I implore Jo and Deb to work hard, Paul implore me to walk right with Him.

How we should walk -  with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
(Ephesians 4:2-3 ESV)
How we walk showed the worthiness of Christ in us. We are the gospel. Therefore walk in that worthiness. SO that when we walk the talk, others will see and listen to the talk. When we talk, people listen. Therefore before GO (talk) is our walk.

Pray pray and pray, seek and seek and seek. If it cannot be purge, then you need someone help. This I pray.
