Adoption Into God’s Family

We have one grandson who was adopted into our family when he was a baby. I can’t imagine what life would be without this grandson. He has provided hours of entertainment, loads of fun, tons of love, and barrels of proud moments. We are so grateful for the honor of being his grandparents.

Ephesians 1:4-5 says, “even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will.” It is an amazing thought that God loved us and adopted us into His family even before the foundation of the world. By the sacrifice of His Son for our sins, we are made holy and blameless before Him. Now we should walk in holiness by His power and through our love for Him.

After 16 years of vocational ministry, God has called me to a simpler ministry. Now I just proclaim His truth simply to those who are open to hear it. God is speaking through His Word and His creation.
