And no one can change that. Nothing can rip it from my heart, soul and mind. I own that knowledge. I am a child of God. What glorious understanding and peace I am afforded. To know without a shadow of doubt that should I die tonight, I am in the arms of my Father in heaven. I get to stand in the presence of my Savior, and bow down and worship His holy name.
Sometimes it is good to go back to the basics of the born-again life and recall this truth as a Christian. "This joy that I have, the world didn't give it to me. The world didn't give it, and the world can't take it away."
"The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God." Romans 8:16
Does your spirit bear witness to this knowledge, too? "Turn your eyes upon Jesus. Look full in His wonderful face. And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in light of His glory and grace." selahV
