The Salt Company | Fall Retreat 2015 | The Glory of Adoption
We've spent months planning and praying for this weekend! Although my instinct is to have control in my life, it is so relieving to know that I have God on my side and He is the one who has ultimate power and control in all things. This weekend was incredible! Drew Stevenson from The Salt Company Iowa City joined us for our three day retreat to talk and teach on 'The Glory of Adoption'.
As he taught through Ephesians and Galatians he was constantly reminding us of the unconditional love God has for us as His sons and daughters.
We are rebels and our rebellion reveals our need for a father.
Galatians 4:4-6
4 But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. 6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!”
We are so underserving yet God sent His one and only son who knew no sin to die for each and everyone of our sins! It's such a beautiful story to be adopted by God and never forsaken.
