As I walked the streets the other day, every where I looked I saw children. Some were smiling from ear to ear while others had eyes that were filled with tears. I passed by a five year old bathing a new born and without thinking I said, “I want one of these children”. Immediately I heard the voice of God say I want them all because they are my children. My heart began to break as I started to see these children through the Fathers eyes. My heart was sincere in wanting a child. I have a heart to adopt like never before. I want to love and change a life. My love can only do so much. However, the Lords love is more powerful then all. His love is all.
One of my deepest desires is to be a mom. I want to know the fathers love deeper by being a parent. He is madly in love with every single one of his kids. He made them all wonderfully and fearfully in his image. There is nothing that His children could do to make him love them any less or any more. He loves all the time because He is love.
Once again I am overwhelmed by the love of God. There is nothing more beautiful then the love God has for you and I.
Jesus said, ” Let the Children come to me,
and do not hinder them,
for the kingdom of heaven
belongs to such as these” matthew 19:14
The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit
that we are God’s children.
Now if we are children,
then we are heirs-heirs of God and co-heirs
with Christ. Romans 8:16
How great is the love the Father has lavished on us,
that we should be called children of God!
And that is what we are! 1 John 3:1
Praise to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
In his great mercy He has given us life
And now we can be called the children of God
Great is the love that the Father has given us
sing your song and rejoice for
the love that he has given us all
by the blood of his Son we have been redeemed
The Father above has proven His love
Now we are free from the judgement that we deserve
So we are called the children of God
We are the saints
We are the children
We are the sons and daughters of our God
