Ephesians 1:3-4
"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, even as He choose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him. In love"
Paul is here demonstrating a circle of praise. We bless God because He blessed us.
In fact the whole passage is lined with references to the Godly "first move".
God blessed us, now we can bless Him.
God choose us, now we can choose Him.
God is holy, now we can strive for holiness.
What "first move" is God performing right now with you? Is He preparing you for mission? Is He preparing you to be loved? Is He preparing you for a holy way of loving your wife?
Open your eyes and see what glorious love God is showing today.
