BELONGING TO GOD

“Yet to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God…”  (John 1:12 NIV)

To remember who creates and recreates, who calls us again and again, who knows us completely, and who loves us unconditionally is to be prepared, as Jesus was, for all that is to come.

We need have no fear of today or anxiety about tomorrow. We belong to God who claims us as beloved children and holds us close in the embrace of strength and love. Listen and remember today that God calls your name, and be transformed and sustained in all that awaits you.
