The Boldness of God’s Children

Jesus enjoys a perfect, intimate, and filial relationship with God the Father. As creatures and sinners, we do not automatically enjoy this sort of relationship with God. Yet God delights to adopt us as His children, so we can share in Jesus’ relationship with God and have the boldness to relate to God as if we were Jesus. Do you know yourself to be a child of God? In the coming year, how can you more fully live into your status as a child of God?
