“The Father has loved us so much that we are called children of God. And we really are his children.” 1 John 3:1 (NCV)
Let me tell you who you are. In fact, let me proclaim who you are.
You are an heir of God and a co-heir with Christ (Romans 8:17).
You are eternal, like an angel (Luke 20:36).
You have a crown that will last forever (1 Corinthians 9:25).
You are a holy priest (1 Peter 2:5), a treasured possession
(Exodus 19:5)….
But more than any of the above–more significant than any title or position–is the simple fact that you are God’s child.
“We really are his children.”
As a result, if something is important to you, it’s important to God.
