Having the Heart of a Son

1st Quarter Volume 9

Recently I (Rick) came to realize that I have spent most of my time these past 15 years focusing on my identity and position as a son of God and not very much on what it means to “be” a son in my heart. A large part of this skewed focus on sonship came as a result of my struggles to walk away from an orphan heart and orphan thinking and begin living like a true son. I have had to rebuild an image in my heart of what a son looks like, how I now view my life and how I can relate to God as my Father. I believe that was all necessary to establish a base from which I can just “be” His son and go deeper into a more intimate relationship with my Heavenly Father.
