Awe Struck

The
other day my daughter got into a debate with another girl that she
corresponds with and it got me contemplating today about our
relationship with our Lord. I got to thinking and praying about it so
much it turned into a little personal worship time. Kind of amazing
how things play out through the day.

The
debate is an old and familiar one on security of the believer, but it
got me thinking about what kind of relationship we have with Him and
it just kind of floored me. The Word talks about us being adopted
son and daughters, but have you ever contemplated just what that
means? Can you even begin to comprehend the enormity of being a child
of G_d? To think that the Creator of the universe not only sent His
only begotten Son to die in our place, but in doing that He makes us
co-heirs of His kingdom. He loves us so much that He wanted to not
just redeem us to Him but to make us His children. I am sitting here
in awe and wonder right now. I know that to some people this is
probably basic thinking but it is so amazing to sit back and
contemplate just what His love means and how He shows it. Quite
frankly I do not understand how someone could even suggest that this
love, once you have felt it, could be walked away from, but I don't
want to contemplate such a thing right now. I want to just sit here
and bask in my Father's love and know I can call him Daddy if I want
to.
