My Big Brother

I am blessed to have three brothers. Yet growing up, I was the oldest, so I didn’t have a “big” brother. Someone I imagined would stick up for me, protect me and spoil me too. Someone I know would correct me and prod me into being the best person they knew I could be. I used to wish for a big brother.

Well, I’ve been adopted!!!!

1 John 3:1-2

See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.

Romans 8:15

For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!”

I love how Jesus IS the Big Brother I thought I never had. He is Lord, Savior, Peace and all that but He is also my Big Brother. He is my Brother who shows me the best way to Father’s Heart. He is my Big Brother who willingly shares His inheritance with me. He is my Big Brother who put His Life on line just to make sure my adoption papers would be signed by The Judge. Thank You Jesus for being the best Big Brother a girl could ever have!
