Remember who you are
It’s easy in this world of bills and business to get discouraged because it happens to me often but as Christians we need to remember who we are and who we belong to. Christians have hope in God. We have a future in heaven. We have someone to call on in good and bad times. God’s covenants toward us have meaning. Not just in the future but now as well. The time was right for the fulfillment of those covenants. Galatians 4:1-7 spells it out for us.
“What I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. He is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. So also, when we were children, we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world. But when the time had fully come, God sent his son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive the full rights of sons. Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, ‘ABBA, Father’. So you are no longer a slave, but a son; since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.”
