These few short verses are really all about family…or better a home that the family of God has when faith is shared…not the kind of home we think of when we think of bricks and mortar. In a day and time when so many are searching for a sense of identity and belonging in so many different ways, the Apostle Paul’s contention is that identity is found not in and with the flesh or things of the flesh, in a relationship with God…NOT with another.
reading Romans 8:12-17
