God is GUIDING
“For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.” Romans 8:14 (NLT)
2. God is GENTLE
So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15 (NLT)
3. God is GENEROUS
If we are his children we share his treasures, and all that Christ claims as his will belong to all of us as well! Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. Romans 8:17 (NIV)
