I was afraid to be an adopted child
I feared I might not be loved as others
What’s worse? I have flaws I couldn’t change
I doubt I could prove my worth in his house
But he choose me with my flaws and made me his own
I feared I would soon let him down
And you know what? I was right
As soon as I settled in I forgot his rules
I broke them all and proved undeserving of his love
What amazed me is he drew me closer to himself in my weakness
He didn’t think I should be sent away
Although I think I would have kicked me out immediately
I didn’t help it either as I kept falling back to old habits
If he was a human Father I would be rotting in the dungeon
But not so with my heavenly Father, his love knows no limits
It causes me great displeasure to fail him
Not because I think he would kick me out
But because I would love to please and bear fruit for him
Great love should be repaid by great loyalty
But I’m afraid I have not yet attained this
Lord I pray that you’d conquer this heart
Though I belong to you, possess this heart completely
Make it your slave daily that I may please you always
I’m already yours but I would have everything in me be yours
Heavenly Father own my whole being and be alone my Lord
A life in time to Preach 
Wow. The priviledge of adoption. How great the Love of the heavenly Father
