Let’s Party!
May 26th, 2011
Luke 15:8-10
My brother’s voice quivered with excitement, “We have a baby.” After waiting several years and then losing a baby to miscarriage, my brother and his wife had decided to adopt. This was no ordinary baby. She had been chosen.
Her pale skin contrasted with her dark hair. She rarely cried, and everyone in the family wanted to hold this precious child. We took turns feeding her, cuddling her, and just looking at her. She was a gift to the entire family.
Imagine the greater excitement in heaven whenever a soul joins the family of God. Each one is adopted, chosen, and rescued through the transaction of the cross. The bloodline of the soul is not contained in genetic code, but in the wounds of the Savior.
The family of God joins with the angels as they rejoice and all of heaven shouts, “Let’s party!”
