In a sense we're all children of God - Jesus is called the one and only Son. Monogeneo is the word, God's only "genetic" child. He bears the very essence of God. What we say about God we say about Jesus. So the promise rises and falls on the identity of Jesus.

God comes on his own terms. He comes when commands are revered, hearts are clean, and confession is made.

God meets our needs one day at a time.

You are heaven's Halley's comet; we have one shot at seeing you shine.

God is faithful even when his children are not.

Hiding out with the enemy brings only temporary relief.

You are who God says you are. Spiritually alive. Heavenly positioned. Connected to the Father. A billboard of mercy. An honored child.
