GOD delights in those who are forever awestruck by him, those who sit on the edge of their seats waiting to see how he is going to again reveal his faithfulness and love.
ROMANS 8:15 (CEV)
God's Spirit doesn't make us slaves who are afraid of him. Instead, we become his children and call him our Father.
