Reflections on peace - p11

God's beloved children - 1 John 3:1.

'See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!'

1 John 3:1a

We are God's children.

We can be at peace,

for God will look after us.

Heavenly Father, we praise your name. Through your Son, we can call you Father. Because of Christ's death on the cross, our past, present, and future sins have been forgiven, and we have been made right with God.

Lord, oh how you love us. We know that you are the most perfect, loving Father. We know that you care for your children, love them, look after them, and will keep them safe.

Father, help us not to forget the love you have for us, your children. Help us to hold close to our hearts the knowledge that you will keep us safe. We need not be afraid.

God, give us a deep sense of peace. We are Your children, You are our Father, You will look after us; therefore, we can be at peace.

No matter what we have gone through, are going through, or will go through, we can have peace knowing God loves us and will keep us safe, for in Christ, we are His beloved children.

Amen

P.S. - To anyone reading this, may you know the peace of having God as your Father each and every day of your life.

Love and prayers,

Joshua
