Children of God
Happy Melodic Monday! It’s the first Melodic Monday of 2011 and I decided to start the year with a passionate song that states, claims, and rejoices who we are: Children of God by Third Day. Listen and join the people singing and praising our amazing Father!
Praise to the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ
Our God and our King, to Him we will sing
In His great mercy, He has given us life
Now we can be called the children of God
Great is the Love that the Father has given us
He has delivered us
He has delivered us
Children of God, sing your song and rejoice
For the love that He has given us all
Children of God, by the blood of His Son
We have been redeemed and we can be called
Children of God
Children of God
A mystery is revealed to the universe
The Father above has proven His love
Now we are free from the judgment that we deserve
And so we are called the children of God
We are the saints
We are the children
We’ve been redeemed
We’ve been forgiven
We are the sons and daughters of our God
Gracious God,
Thank you for redeeming us
and now calling us sons and daughters.
There’s nothing better!
Help us to live out our faith in you
in such a manner
that people that are yearning to know you
could find their way back to you.
Back to rejoicing in you.
Back to live the abundant life of
your sons and daughters.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen

Thank you so much Anna for sharing this lovely song. I am not familiar with it, but the lyrics are agreeable and comforting to me.
It gives me a feeling of peace and contentment knowing that I am a child of our Heavenly Father, and a hope that one day I will see Him face to face and dwell in His presence for ever and ever.

I remember the first time as a new believer, that someone told me that I'm a child of God. I was so excited because I realized it was true! Once we are children of God, we can choose to live our lives out in ways that make our relatinship with Him, know no boundaries. The closer to Him we seek to become, the closer He draws us to Him. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome, Carrie! Thank you for sharing your reflections! There really is nothing better than being a child of God. The gifts of peace and contentment are priceless! God bless you!
Thank you, Tammy! Yes, it is incredible to have a direct access to our Heavenly Father. Abiding in Him is as good as it gets! Blessings to you, sister!
