Reasons I Found.
Every now and then I remember what I lost but the episode always ends with realizing what God has given me and how grateful I am. I recognize what I lost but I understand what I’ve gained so I Count it all joy. I’ve learned true realities like;
- I lost father, mother and brother and gained Father, OPPA and Coach.
- my dad finished as a minister in my country while God has always been well, GOD.
- my mother mentored me by the Holy Spirit, but now my Coach IS The Holy Spirit.
- joshua acted and felt like my older brother, but now Jesus who is the Big Brother of big brothers IS my Older Brother.
“Simple answer? I’ve been adopted.”

There are so many scriptures that corroborate our adoption through Christ that it’s now one of the foundational truths of my identity. For instance Galatians 4:3-7 says “In the same way we also, when we were children, were enslaved to the elementary principles of the world. But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.”
My response is Thanks Apa.
