An Easter Devotional on Ephesians 6:10, Youth Faith, and the Power of God
During Lent, our confirmation students met with mentors to talk about faith and life—growing in identity, belonging, and purpose through caring relationships. Together they also co-wrote reflections on a Bible verse, and we’ll be sharing these devotionals throughout the Easter season as an invitation to embrace thoughtful dialogue and respond to God’s grace with love in the world.
Today's Reflection was written by 6th Grader Ryan Walter and his mentor Brian Rulla
Ephesians 6:10. “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his great power.”
This Bible verse means that God has power, and you can do anything with it. When you are mad, you can ask God for some of his power, and He will help you through your journey. No matter what the struggle is, He will give you some of his power and help you. This Bible verse is interesting because Saul, the writer of it, was a person who terrorized Christians. But when God saw this, God stopped Saul by turning his eyes to scales and he became a Christian. After he became Christian, he started writing the letters to different people. What this bible verse means to me is that when you are down God will get you up by giving you power.
