Thoughts on Today's Verse.... We belong to the Lord, God of all creation, and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. We are his (1 Peter 2:9-10). We are recipients of God's grace and are blessed by his love for Israel's fathers, along with physical Israel (Romans 11:28). We don't have to fear because God is in control of our future, just as he worked through the history of his chosen people to send the Messiah. God will accompany us through the difficult trials we will face. He will make sure our redemption is realized. Why? Because we belong to him. We are his. He knows us. He formed us. God's people are his possession forever. We are children of the almighty and the eternal God!
