"See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are." I John 3:1
Christian disciplines, like Bible meditation, are given to us, not as burdens to bear, duties to be performed or intellectual studies to be mastered. They are given to us to help us deepen our relationship with God our Father. He has given us life. I am his child. I cannot begin to comprehend the ramifications of this fact. But in its contemplation, and as I grow in my understanding of it, I grow to love Him more. I am able to give Him more thanks for what He has done for me. Little by little I relish the immense privilege of being His child.
