Make A Difference To One

By Jason, M.Ed., M.A.R., Headmaster

"For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. So you should not be like cowering, fearful slaves. You should behave instead like God's very own children, adopted into his family -- calling him "Father, dear Father." For his Holy Spirit speaks to us deep in our hearts and tells us that we are God's children. (Romans 8:14-16, NLT)

Growing up, my two older brothers and I would fight with each other all the time. My oldest brother would pick on my other brother, who would then turn around and pick on me. We called each other names, hit each other, made fun of each other, played tricks on each other—typical brother stuff. Our parents hated it, of course, but we kept right on fighting with each other. To watch us every day, you’d think we hated each other... until someone from outside our family tried to pick a fight with one of us.
