로마서(Rom) 9장

25. 호세아의 글에도 이르기를 내가 내 백성 아닌 자를 내 백성이라, 사랑하지 아니한 자를 사랑한 자라 부르리라

25. As he says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘my people’ who are not my people; and I will call her ‘my loved one’ who is not my loved one,”

26. 너희는 내 백성이 아니라 한 그 곳에서 그들이 살아 계신 하나님의 아들이라 일컬음을 받으리라 함과 같으니라

26. and, “In the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’ ”

Actually, I was not the one of His loving ones, and only as a gentile, who didn't belong to Him, I was like a fatherless child. Thanks to His adopting me as His beloved child, I became a precious one, specially called as a daughter of the living God. This makes me satisfied with happiness and peace, so my heart is filled with joy. I give Him many thanks all the time when I walk, eat, drink, touch, smell, sleep and even pee or poop. Everything is from Him and He is a maker and for my sake He has prepared all of these parts and organs, and the nature, that is, surroundings. I praise Him for everything, such as His wisdom, power, and mercy, and so on. I love Lord, my Father, holding my hands up to You, I pray, amen.
