TODAY’S WORD…

.

But when the fullness of time had come,

God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law…

in order to redeem those who were under the law,

so that we might receive adoption as children.

.

And because you are children,

God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts,

crying, ‘Abba! Father!’

.

– Galatians 4:4-6 (NRSV)

.

.

.

REFLECTION…

.

God sent His Son to be a woman’s son.

He emptied His home so He could send a redeemer to our home.

.

He did it so we could be His children

– not pretend children, but real children, with full rights.

.

He did it so He would not only be God,

but so He could be Abba, Our Father.

QUOTE…

.

"…if we have a constant relationship with the Holy Spirit,

we shall become spiritual ourselves,

we shall realise that we are Christ’s [siblings] and children of God,
