"All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay." 1 Peter 1:3-4
If that doesn't make you two step, I don't know what will! An inheritance, as defined in Webster, is the passing on of possessions or genetic qualities from parent to offspring. Choosing to accept Christ makes us a child of God and a member of this beautiful family. Our life is so much greater that the small trials we experience on earth (1 Peter 1:6-7). Let's live in expectation of that great things God will continue to do for us on earth, and the magnificent things waiting for us eternally. Happy Friday!
