Orphan to Heir

L:

I just finished an excellent book - "Adopted for Life" by Russell Moore. I highly recommend it. I hadn't started it yet when I posted on Christmas Eve. When I just read the last page, I was amazed to find that he used many of the same words to express what I was feeling on that day. Here's part of it. "I pray that you will grow in wonder that you were a cosmic orphan, and now you're the beloved son of the Father, an heir of everything you can see and of things so glorious they'd burn your corneas to powder if you looked at them now." He's much better with words than I am, so I am so thankful for his expression and encouragement of this wonder.
