As you are reading this post today are you, (1) experiencing joy and peace or are you, (2) feeling worried about what this day will bring, or concerned that you may not be able to overcome the difficulties in your life?
If you find yourself being a (2) then I would like to encourage you to read 1 John chapter 3. The first 3 verses are shown below. I read these verses this morning and I can feel joy bubbling up inside of me, because it reminded me that I'm a child of God. And when I contemplated this fact - a child of the almighty God, Creator of the universe, the One who has made the birds, the trees and the beautiful flowers and who formed me in my mother's womb - I'm in awe.
Please be inspired today. You are a child of God. Nothing that life throws at you will get to down if you keep your eyes focused on Him, the Most High Father.
1 John 3:1-3 1.See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called 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 Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
- All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.
My Prayer
Dear Lord Jesus, please help us to absorb and enbrace the fact that when we repent of our sins and receive You as our Lord and Saviour, we become children of the Most High Father. Thank you for Your words which states"if God is for us, who can be against us?" Hallelujah. Aman.
