Choosing to be adopted
ah,
that is the key point
isn’t
it, the important thing
the
fact of choice
A
different act, when it is
a
purposeful step, choosing
whether
in earthly terms
or
accepting the offer
paid
in full, fully,
one
time for all, for everyone
by
the Lamb, by our Lord Jesus
An
adult has a choice,
the
gift of free will
which
path to choose in life;
a
boldness in choosing
being
open to adoption,
penitent
and thankful,
by
a loving mother or father.

Open to Adoption
About Ephesians 1:3-14 and
about the adoption at age 25
in 1913 of my grandfather,
Arthur Leon Foss by Georgiana
Foss, matron of
the Faith Home orphanage in
Lowell, MA.
Honoring her by taking the
name he had always known.
Recognizing the consciousness
of accepting
God’s offer of adoption, with
its rewards and responsibilities.
