Gracious Father, who has adopted us as your daughters and sons, we bow before you in immense gratitude for your generosity in making us heirs with your only begotten. Grant us right hearts to live worthy of your name. This we ask through the gift also of your beloved son Jesus, who abides with you and the Holy Spirit in glory eternally. Amen.
‘And if [we are] children [of God], then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if we in fact suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.’ – Rom. 8:17
