An Unworthy Heiress

...fellow heirs with Christ... (Romans 8:17)

This four word phrase absolutely baffles my mind! I cannot wrap my mind around it. I am a fellow heir with Christ. Every bit of the Father's inheritance that is Christ's is likewise mine. I am given the inconceivable privilege of sharing an immeasurable inheritance! While I was yet a sinner Christ died for me and now shares HIS inheritance with me. What a truly unworthy heiress am I! It is only because of Christ's imputed righteousness. How can I ever express the depth of that gratitude?! I was once dead, and He made me alive. Not only did He give me life, but He gave me His inheritance. May my life praise Him!

Jen...I got your message. I will be happy to look at your Indian wall hanging. Just call first before bringing it over to make sure I am home!
