Remember you are a Child of God

S - Scripture     

Matthew 17 v. 25b-26   What do you think Simeon?  For whom do Kings of the earth take their tribute? From their sons or from others?  And he said, "From others", Jesus said to him, "Then the Son's are free."  

O - Observation    

Freedom. I love that last sentence. Then the Son's are free. Think about it, Jesus constantly refers to us (believers in him) as his family. As his children. And, oh yea!!, our gifts are free!!! Our Gift is eternal life. Our gift is a place where there is no weeping or sorrow. Forever. Life.  1 Corinthians 2 v. 9 No eye has seen, no MIND has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him. All this for Free. Jesus paid the price for us by his bitter suffering and death and RESURRECTION.

A - Application  

Have I thought recently about what it really means to be a Child of God? Have I thanked him for this?    

P - Prayer      

Jesus, Thank you for the amazing gift. Thanks for having me in your family. Love Will.
