Reference Passage: …  Galatians 4:5-7 [ESV] …  USE THIS LINK … 

… God, thru Paul, shows how fellow believers in Christ become sons and daughters in HIs family and heirs to God’s throne.   

Highlight Passage: … 1John 3:1  [ESV] …  

1 See how very much our Father loves us, for He calls us His children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know Him.

My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, Tim Gustafson … AT THIS LINK …   … tells of a baby, called “Baby Boy” by the authorities after he was found abandoned, until he was lovingly adopted by young parents who now give all their love to their “Baby Boy,” who is now a toddler with loving parents (see photo). 

And the story illustrates what the linked song and the Scriptures above teach; … that there will be no orphans in heaven, … with all who believe in Christ as Lord and Savior, being adopted by our loving Heavenly Father into His family as heirs to God’s throne of grace. 

And I’m praying that all reading with me here today, feel the love of God and pray to our “Abba Father” every day with thankful hearts for making us His sons and daughters.                                   

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for binging me into Your family.

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to pray thankfully to You, Lord, Who died to bring us into Your family.    .… Amen
