Grace for your spirit September 26, 2008

For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, "Abba! Father!" Romans 8:15

When "Little Orphan Annie" was plucked out of the orphanage and adopted by "Daddy Warbucks", her life changed drastically and immediately. From poverty to riches, from sadness to happiness, from abuse to pampering, from loneliness to belonging. The joy in her life was evident and her happiness overflowed onto everyone she met. She couldn’t quit laughing, singing and dancing. When we are born again into the kingdom of God, we leave our slavery and fear behind. Our crying in pain, becomes the cry of joy. Our Father in heaven is the ultimate "Daddy Warbucks" As He meets all our needs in Christ, let the celebrating be seen by all.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
