Elevated/Big Thought: God has called us to BE the Church...an Unstoppable Force so that His kingdom comes and His will is done on earth as it is in heaven.

The thought behind the quote
If you are a part of God’s family, you are a part of the greatest entity on the earth! Read THIS from God’s Word and BE encouraged! “All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ’s body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.” (Ephesians 1:20-23 MSG)
