It is easier to picture ourselves as a servant to Christ than it is to imagine that we are actually now sons and daughters of the Creator of the Universe and beyond.  Our inheritance is more than our minds can grasp and so much more than we could ever deserve.

A Son That Serves

As you accept the call to service – you align with God’s plan.
You are entering a Blessed and Holy land.
When you humble yourself to do God’s will;
You have placed yourself in service to His mission fulfill.
You agreed to be ruled by the labor of love;
A willing servant of God above.
In turn you are placed at His side;
When life’s battle is over with Him you forever abide.
God’s love is forever, your earthly service is put to rest;
Shared with you is all possessed.
The Angels rejoice at what they see done;
As servant is raised to be with God as one.
All creation strains to share in the rejoicing as they behold man,
In the honorable place the Father has planned.
Each are marked as His and it is seen plain,
That though they come in service, Sons they forever remain.

Isaiah 1:19
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

John 1:12
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God,even to them that believe on his name:

I John 3:1-3
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not

I John 3:2
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
