I am a child of God

As a child of God we can never fall too far.  God’s love is always waiting for us to return.  There is hope waiting when we are ready to accept it.  Grace heals all of the bridges that are burned and relationships that are broken.  When we choose to leave yesterday and all of its troubles behind us, we can start fresh each and every day.  It’s never too late to return to God’s love and mercy.  We often feel like our life doesn’t make sense and we are constantly feeling knocked down but our God won’t let us break and He is always there to answer when we call out.  Who we are and what we go through is part of the journey but God knows everything we need as a child of God.  God’s word tells us that He will never let us go once we receive Him into our hearts and believe in His name.  Whatever our struggles are and whatever pain we feel, He will never let us go but He will remain with us always.  If we suffer in the name of God we will be glorified with Him.  God makes all things good even the deepest pain and sorrow can be used for His glory if we allow it. 

I am a child of God.

But to all who have received him--those who believe in his name--he has given the right to become God's children … (John 1:12).

As a child of God, I am a fellow heir with Christ.

And if children, then heirs (namely, heirs of God and also fellow heirs with Christ)--if indeed we suffer with him so we may also be glorified with him (Romans 8:17).
