Sometimes we want this relationship with God to come easily. I self-examine, "Maybe I'm not figuring out things that others have who have gone before me. Are there revelations God is withholding from me because I won't 'get it together'?" Alas, the Holy Spirit didn't allow me to think this way much longer. I found myself reading Ephesians merely by chance and was gently corrected. " Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ."--Ephesians 1:3 God doesn't have an "elite" group of people that are allowed access to His blessings. We have been given everything! " His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness."--2 Peter 1:3
