His Child

Alleluia, alleluia!
The Word of God became flesh and dwelt among us.
He enabled those who accepted him
to become the children of God.
Alleluia!
Jn.1:14.12

John the Apostle declares what he witnessed... God becoming flesh... and what it means... all who accept him become children of God.

There cannot be a more intimate relationship than that of being a child. A child is naturally chrished, protected and provided for by the father, in a functional relationship at least. This is who I am, a child of God. God is my Abba, my daddy. I am cherished. I am protected. I am provided for.

Thank you Jesus for visiting your people, for visiting me. You have made me a brother and an heir.
Saint John the Apostle, please pray for me.
