Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

CHILDREN OF GOD




I John 3:1-3  "How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God!  And that is what we are!  The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.  Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known.  But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is,  Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he is pure."

How can we thank You, Father for adopting us as Your sons and daughters?  How can we even begin to grasp what that adoption really means?  For reasons we will never understand, You have chosen us to be heirs of a heavenly legacy, and even more remarkably to be joint-heirs with Your only begotten Son.  We are so grateful Lord and in our gratitude we long to be like Jesus.  Transform us into His likeness, so that in this life, as well as in the life to come, we will come to bear a family resemblance to Him.  I love You.  Amen.
