Can we measure God’s Cost?

John 1:12-13

To all who received him, to those who believe in his name, he gave the right to become children of God — children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.

We live in a time and culture of rights. "It's my right to ___." Just fill in the blank. But we don't have a right to be God's child. We are given that right by God's grace. This right came to us at great cost to God. Jesus came to earth, lived, died and was raised from the dead.

We receive this grace through faith: God gives us new birth as we trust in Jesus as Lord and we are baptized and reborn through the power of the Holy Spirit (John 3:3-7; Titus 3:3-7). To be born of God, to be born from above, to be born "again" is the gift of adoption into God's family and brings us all the rights of heirs in God's house (Galatians 3:26-4:7).

Thoughts 

. It takes real faith to begin to live the life of heaven while still upon the earth, for this requires that we rise above the low of moral gravitation and bring to our everyday living the high wisdom of God.  And since this wisdom is contrary to that of the world, conflict is bound to result.  This, however, is a small price to pay for the inestimable privilege of following Christ. - A. W. Tozer

Yeshu Masih

Tere Jaisa Hai Koi Nahi
येशु मसीह तेरे जैसा है कोई नहीं
येशु मसीह तेरे जैसा है कोई नहीं
तेरे चरणों मे झुके आसमां
और महिमा ग|ए सभी - 2

. हम ग|ए होसंना
तू राजाओं का है राजा
तेरी महिमा होवे सदा
तू है प्रभु हमारा खुदा - 2
. प्यारे पिता तुने हमसे
कितना प्यार किया
हमे पापों से छुडाने को
अपने बेटे को कुर्बान किया

Yeshu Masih
Tere Jaisa Hai Koi Nahi,
Tere Charano Me Jhuke Aasman,
Aur Mahima Gaaye Zameen   (2)

. Hum Gaaye Ho-ssana
Tu Rajaon Ka Hai Raja
Teri Mahima Hove Sada
Tu Hai Prabhu, Hamara Khuda  (2)

. Pyare Pita
Tune Humse Kitna Pyar Kiya
Mere Paapo Se Chudane Ko
Apne Bete Ko Kurban Kiya.
