This resurrection life you received from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It’s adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike “What’s next, Papa?” God’s Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. We know who he is, and we know who we are: Father and children.
And so we should not be like cringing, fearful slaves, but we should behave like God’s very own children, adopted into the bosom of his family, and calling to him, “Father, Father.” God’s Spirit doesn’t make us slaves who are afraid of him. Instead, we become his children and call him our Father. You received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children.
In agreement I say that this is a very nice reminder. God bless you
