I don’t think we fully grasp the magnitude of being God’s children. Of being able to call, “Abba! Father!” to the creator and sustainer of the Universe!
And not just His children, but the fact that He would choose us, sinful and rebellious as we are, to be “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation…for His own possession is stupefying beyond all comprehension!
Let us taste this reality and see “that the Lord is good!”
Yet that’s who we are; who God has made us through faith in Jesus!
He has a purpose for us as His people, however. He has made us this, “that [we] may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called us out of darkness into His marvelous light!” He purposes us “to offer spiritual sacrifices” in our lives, because we cannot help it, having experienced the manifold magnificence of it ourselves!
How utterly blessed we are!
“Thank You, Lord!”
