Prayer: Oh Lord, we are so grateful for Your family here on earth! We love Your people. Amen
Scripture: You . . . are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God’s holy people. You are members of God’s family. Ephesians 2:19 NLT
We all know what it is like to be part of a family. There are good families and not-so-good ones. Sometimes your earthly family will disappoint you. But you can gain comfort and hope from knowing that you are a worthy part of another family: the family of God! His grace has made you one of His own. You don’t deserve it, but you have been adopted into the greatest of families. Expect great things in the Lord’s will, for you are a child of THE King. Enjoy your day.
I pray for a gift of encouragement to flow through you to someone in need. Be lifted up, yourself!
