Ephesians 1 ~ by the will of God

Psalm 19:1 

The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Ephesians 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints who are in Ephesus, and are faithful in Christ Jesus: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.


3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.

 In love 5 he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, 8 which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight 9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ 10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. 11 In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. 13 In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it,to the praise of his glory.


15 For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ  

The Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, 23 which is his body,
 the fullness of him who fills all in all.

My mother is very elderly these days. A friend who is an attorney says that she runs into the same problem. To conduct banking and investments - you go into the Financial Institution. You take the elderly - they are unclear what's going on. You have their permission - you show a Durable Power of Attorney - you and your elderly parent sign the right papers. All is set up for your help.

My friend, like we do, gets gifts from the parent - for grandchildren. Passwords and online systems.

A week later - the password has changed. The ID has changed. My mother's email was lost due to old age, changing phones, etc. We have had 6 personal visits. And i have been online, 3 times on the phone yesterday, 9 times on the phone in 2 weeks. Passwords change. You have to stay on hold and explain to a new person each time. Varying degrees of helpfulness. "The Money: is managed - what do you mean you should earn more than 1%??? Why sell something that has lost 75%. It's part of the package.

What the password was lost?

My Attorney friend goes in for the same withdrawal they discussed last week  for the grandchild. With the Durable Power of Attorney. Sorry - yes, we see the history of the withdrawal. No. Don't recall the conversation. Go get the parent who is 87 years old.

So I have been on 6 personal visits with a Dementia Elderly. 4 emails. 2 times my mom has gone to do business. I have had to change her email out. And request a new ID away from The Social Security Number as the ID? How many new passwords with phone calls in a month? 12??? Oh yes we made that change. Om no.

You know at this point
 - you say words -
that at the end of the day you garden and  you say "I Know I'm Christian."
And you are so pleased to know God's mercy extends when you just don't feel you have human endurance any more. And all day you think of the hours and hours of work you put in to do something that should have taken - tops - 30 minutes.

It's a plain @$$ soul CRUNCHER.

I was the Legal Guardian of the Person and the Estate for 12 years of an elderly cousin who had 23 strokes - never to recover short or long-term memory care. Placed in a locked memory care facility to receive instruction and care. With two extra hired employees. And when you met someone in the financial institutions that didn't want to help with Year End Guardianship Accounting - they typically would say, "We must have you produce the owner of the account." About that time you'd have to say get the manager, a Legal Guardianship is higher in priority than a Durable Power of Attorney. And when you explained a locked in facility - horror of seeing a truly decayed individual would produce "real work".

My mother has accounts that have been managed that have lost a third of the value. But 'Boy Howdy" they are secure from family trying to help.

And that is NOT TO SAY - that where my mother banks there is not a teller who works her absolute tail off to deal with the way my mother banks. My mother has a teller who takes her calls - listens to the nonsensical - and protects and guards my mother.

With in banking, and not stock trading, another institution offers her 1% on her CD and other 'helpers' tell me we must return another day to bank on-line that we have conducted enough business and on-line banking can't be done "in this department." Which is a secondary excuse from 'done enough today.' Mother has two stock investment companies - the first was fired when they showed up at her house to 'help' her. It took my mother 3 days to communicate the transaction there. The next day - the old passwords don't work. The way the Institutions allow elderly assistance - is shocking.

In 1999, a life long friend of my family, my godparents', my godparents' children, my husband - he was a member of our wedding party - lost his job with a Major Stock Brokerage Company. I had hired him to invest my ward, my cousin's funds. We 'specifically' told him - do not load us up in Company funds. It must be the fund itself not the holdings of the Stock Brokerage Company. My ward lost 5% due to his ignoring our direct and specific orders. I had to report to the Probate Court for annual accounting on the Guardianship for the Person and the Estate. The Dallas Probate Court was going to call him to the witness stand until they called the Brokerage Firm and found he was fired for this and going to Assisted Living Facilities and funding up the old people in Assisted Living facilities. He took his father's clients and did this to them. Not a city of Dallas company - a nationally known Major Stock Brokerage Company.


And I will repeat - this happens to Attorneys in towns where they have done business as a family for 30 years with a Durable Power of Attorney on repeat historical business. This is suits playing upon the - elderly. And is so - reprehensible.

We get to go outside. Feel the breeze upon us. To see the flowers and the peaches. See the sun setting. Knowing HIS mercies renew tonight and as the sun rises tomorrow. Knowing the Grace of God fully understands about the frailty of human endurance and the words and thoughts of anger that passes.

Because Our God is more Enduring and More Present than our Difficulties.

Abba Father,

The Truth of Your Promises is more enduring than any person, time or circumstance. We can have a Promise for every single day.

Jesus told us of His Delight in Mankind and Desire to Save the World. He also told us there are goats and weeds. Jesus said He needed no man to explain to Him what was in mankind.

With the Grace of God - we do not allow a bad set of repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat circumstances have us throw the rock that Jesus told us not to throw at mankind.

Einstein said to expect a better outcome from the same set of circumstances is crazy. But God, of Almighty Power and Grace, allows Himself to be patient with us. The Enduring and Constant Steadfast Love God has for us. As we are.

May the Grace of God
Give us strength, Patience, Firmness of Purpose. And Blessings.

Covered in the Name of Jesus ~ The Highest Name of All.
For me,for you.
For our Loved Ones,
for the people You Give us.

For the Blessings of today we will willingly Thank You for.
Blessings of Family, well or ill.
Blessings of difficulties creating memories of Overcoming and learning wisdom.
Blessings in our job places of prayers answered.
Blessings in our schools that tests create places where prayer is freely given. Where God is prayed for - He will be there.

Blessings of Covered in Jesus
Our Nation Trusting in God.
The freedoms we receive in this Blessing upon our
Jobs, Schools, Communities, Churches.

Prayer of the Believers circling the earth of God's Creation -
where He sees good yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Thank Jesus. Amen.
