Family Photo
 
John 1:12-13 (NIV) Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
 
When you look at your favorite family photo, you can probably recall every detail that led up to when the camera captured that moment in your life. Whatever it took to bring the family together, someone made it happen. It took a crucifixion, a death, a burial, and a resurrection to happen in order for us to gain a spot in God’s family photo. While it was Jesus Who took care of all the details, it is the moment when we received Him into our hearts as our Lord and Savior that we became members of God’s family. Now there’s a place in God’s family photo for us! Have you accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior of your life? There’s a place for you to fill in the family, and you’re the only one who can claim your spot! Do it now!
