I have been writing Abecedarian poetry lately as I wait for results on my cancer biopsy. I am doing well but my appointment isn’t until November 16, 2021. Today I looked being adopted by God. Prayers all always appreciated.
Long, long ago he decided to adopt us into his family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure he took in planning this!) (Ephesians 1:5, MSG)

James 1:21 in The Message
Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent, and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. (NIV)
In simple humility, let our gardener, God, landscape you with the Word, making a salvation-garden of your life. (MSG)
