Scripture:
-But when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children. 6And because you are children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our* hearts, crying, ‘Abba!* Father!’ 7So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also an heir, through God” (Galatians 4:4-7).
Observation:
-Another reminder of how the Word became flesh, dwelt among us, and brings salvation. The Spirit of God is place in our heart through Christ.
Application:
-As children of God we have the right to receive a full inheritance, but we are also to share Good News s of salvation, of Divine presence, and hope.
Prayer:
-Lord, I am ever so grateful to be your child. Show me how to share your love.
Yielding:
-In a busy season such as this, I need to yield worry and stress and live in joy.
