is your mother the slave or the free woman?

This was a word I had for a freind but now that i think of it it....it's for all of us.


the orphan spirit of suburbia wants you to be obsessed with your progress because it makes you feel like thats where your value is.
But the adoption Spirit of God wants you to stand out because your blessed in who you are.
A child isnt any better at 2 years old than 5 even if he knows how to do a few more things.
Hes blessed and loved because he's a child.
thats whats going to make you stand out.
You being blessed in your being, even in your failures.
your identity is not in how much you progress or how much you succeed.
your identity is in your Father your identity is in being His child.

I call you out of the yoke of the orphan spirit, I call you out of the heavy yoke of having your identity wrapped up in your progress, I call you out into the freedom to show the world what it means to be a child.
I call you into the freedom of the adoption Spirit.

remember; the first thing Jesus taught his disciples to say when they asked Him how to pray was "Father".


The vain tradition of our Fathers is not Judaism and the law but its striving to find value and identity in our own effort and ability to succeed, and the heavy load of having our whole identity wrapped up in how people around us see us.

What the world doesnt understand is a child.

God loved us before the foundation of the world, before we did any right or wrong.....before the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
