God's Daughter

You are God's Daughter

God loves you so much that He calls you His child. Did you know that? Psalm 27:10 tells us, “Although my father and my mother have abandoned me, Yet the Lord will take me up [adopt me as His child]” (AMP).

You are God’s daughter (John 1:12). God is your Provider and Protector (Psalm 23; James 1:17; Philippians 4:19). Many of us have been hurt, disappointed, neglected or abandoned by our earthly fathers. Your dad was born with a sinful nature, just like the rest of us. Even if your earthly father hurt you in some way, God will always love you. He loves you so much that He sent His only Son, Jesus, to redeem you for Himself. We must learn about God’s character and His everlasting love so that we can quickly dismiss the lies Satan whispers to us and turn instead toward our faith in God, that He will care for us through all things.

“How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called
children of God!” (1 John 3:1 NIV)

God loves you so much that He wants a personal relationship with you. He is waiting for you to give Him your burdens, ask Him for what you need, and trust in Him that He will care for you. Think about that! The Creator of the Universe, almighty God, wants you to draw near to Him (James 4:8). What a precious and amazing gift! Let’s think about this together …

  1. How does your picture of God change as you reflect on 1 John 3:1?

  2. What aspect of God’s character do you most need to rely on right now?  Will you believe in His great love?  Why or why not?

  3. Pray and ask God to share the ways He wants to show you His love right now.

Prayer:
“Dear Lord, thank You for loving us unconditionally. Thank You for calling us Your daughters. Thank You that you want a personal relationship with each and every one of us. Help us remember to turn to You, trust in You, and receive Your love and forgiveness. Help us to get to know You more deeply and put our faith in Your undying love.”
In Jesus’s name. Amen.

You are loved,
