When I was praying last Saturday morning,
I was struck by the verse in Galatians:
"heirs according to the promise..."
We belong to Christ,
and we are heirs of the promise
given to Abraham!
We come from a long line of
people of faith!
Isn't that amazing?!!
In Galatians 4:28,
St. Paul repeats this truth,
that we are children of the promise.
We are a part of the family of faith.
We are not under the slavery of the "law".
I like to think of my family tree,
with Abraham at the very top.
Isn't it exciting to know of our heritage
and what God has in store for us
