Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God. (John 1:12-13 NIV)
Jesus had said that members of families would come against one another. (Luke 12:51-53) Sadly, we witness this every day. It can be very hurtful to the entire family. People find themselves very much out in the cold, alone, and very lonely.
However, there is Good News. There is a blood that is thicker than blood. It is the blood of Christ that was shed for you. All who believe that Jesus died for them are reconciled to God our Father. All who believe in Jesus have been born again; not of flesh and blood, but by the Spirit of God. All who believe in him are the children of God.
We are family!
God's Peace - Pr. J
