God’s sons and daughters:

2 Corinthians 6:18

18     “And I will be a father to you,

And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,”

Says the Lord Almighty.

 

            This is another verse that confirms that He wants to be a Father to us. He doesn’t just want to be our God – the Big Boss. Being a Father is means much more than that. He cares about our past and wants to heal any wounds that we may have. He cares about our present and wants us to have what is best for us. We need to realize that if He wants to correct some behavior of ours, it is for our own good. It’s not because He is being an ogre. He cares about our future and will guide us into His perfect choices for us provided we let Him. That is the way we are to walk in this life – let go, and let God.

 

If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He would say:

            "I could have chosen to make you My servant, but that is not what I desired. I wanted a child to love and be loved by. You are special to Me. Everyone who comes unto Me is a special treasure waiting to be opened and enjoyed by all.”

 

            18. He is my Father, and I am His (son/daughter).
