Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Can't you imagine the day when we see Jesus and he says to you, "You are mine! My righteousness and glory are yours! Enter into your Father's eternal reward!"
If we are in Christ, we don't face judgment, only welcome, with God our Father! His Spirit lives in us. His grace has set us free from the power of sin and death. His Son has paid the price for our sins. We are the beloved children of God!
