Adoption and Confidence
Galatians 4:7
Why you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.


A train dashed into a tunnel with a warning whistle. The whistle and darkness startled a child in his mother's arms, and caused him to scream with fear; but directly the mother's voice was heard, and he felt the soothing hand upon his face, all fear vanished. Yet the child knew not why the train went through the darkness, but immediately the parent's voice reached him, he trusted. When we go through any dark or laborious way, let us also trust our Father in heaven, and nothing will harm us. "The darkness and the light, O Lord, are both alike to Thee."
