Are you part of Gods family? [Spirituality & Religion]

[b]"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light."
1 Peter 9

Why yes! As a matter of fact I am!
Years ago I declared Jesus Christ to be my Lord and Savior.
I read the Bible regularly - study the meaning of what God said to me in those readings. I pray to God regularly - I feel like it helps me maintain a good relationship with Him.
I try hard every day to live my life in a manner that pleases God. And, perhaps most important, I am thankful every day, knowing that Jesus made the Supreme sacrifice for me when my best efforts to live a Godly life fail.

All that puts me on 'God's Family Tree!' I find great comfort in God accepting me as one of His own.

I wish every one would find their path to God. Young or old - we need to recognize that our time here, in this life is limited. Anyone of us could be taken out in some horrible accident for example. If we haven't prepared our souls, haven't accepted Jesus as our Savior, when we breathe our last breath, the turkey timer pops - there's no more time to make amends. Do it - do it today!

@SW-User If we are Christian we have been adopted into the gods chosen people.

@Emosaur I want you to be saved because I care about you!

[b]"How long will you who are simple love your simple ways?
How long will mockers delight in mockery
and fools hate knowledge?
23 Repent at my rebuke!
Then I will pour out my thoughts to you,
I will make known to you my teachings.
24 But since you refuse to listen when I call
and no one pays attention when I stretch out my hand,
25 since you disregard all my advice
and do not accept my rebuke,
26 I in turn will laugh when disaster strikes you;
I will mock when calamity overtakes you—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm,
when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind,
when distress and trouble overwhelm you.


28 “Then they will call to me but I will not answer;
they will look for me but will not find me,
29 since they hated knowledge
and did not choose to fear the Lord.
30 Since they would not accept my advice
and spurned my rebuke,
31 they will eat the fruit of their ways
and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.
32 For the waywardness of the simple will kill them,
and the complacency of fools will destroy them;
33 but whoever listens to me will live in safety
and be at ease, without fear of harm. Proverbs 1:22”
