    Made For Another World
    May 20 2026

    Scripture

    Ephesians 2:7–10 (NIV)

    In order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God — not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.




    Refrain

    I was made for more than I can currently see.




    Quote

    Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (attributed)

    "We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience."
