Today's
scripture: Ephesians 2:19-22
It’s such an amazing thought: We are part of God’s household. We are sons and daughters of the King of Kings. Christ is the cornerstone of the church, and we are its members. That’s amazing, too.
I especially love the thought of being God’s daughter. I love my earthly father, but we don’t have that strong of a relationship. For a while, I struggled with the idea of a loving father, one who cared for me no matter what.
When I finally recognized how much God loves me—unconditionally loves me—I understood what a Father really is.
He is gentle, compassionate, and caring. He protects His children and provides for them. He’s a refuge when things are difficult.
I can crawl on my Father’s lap when I’m sad. I can reach my hand to Him for His strength when I don’t have any of my own.
I can’t wait until I see my Father face-to-face. What a moment that will be—in the arms of my Abba—my daddy.
