“His Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children.” (Romans 8:15b-16

I was to meet my daughter for the Kitchener, Christmas parade. The parade began, and she had not arrived with the children (held up at the doctor’s office). I got a call “I’m here, in the parking garage”! As I helped the grandkids out of the van, I was informed: “Santa Clause just passed by.”

Instead of the parade, I enjoyed a visit with my grandchildren for about an hour plus, alone. She conversed freely with me. Flipping through a little Bible, she noted the word love in 1 Corinthians 13. “I know this word, love”. She began to tell me about the Spirit of God, His love and His desire that we have more Life.

Next, she headed for my Bible with many inquiries. Flipping it open she said, “did you do this?” as she perused my underlining in the Word. “Why?” was the next question. I pondered, wow, Jesus must be akin to the Grandfather with His own grandchildren. I praised Him over my grandgirl silently, considering what Jesus said, “Except my Father invites, no one can come unto me” (John 6:65 my version) And we talked, further.
