“For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.” (Romans 8:14-16). As God’s children we seek to live in a way that pleases Him, not in a way that disappoints Him. When we put on Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us, we are children of God. Think of how loved you are that God wants to adopt you into His family!
