My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, have courage and do not be discouraged, we were told and can accept the challenges we are given. Stand strong with our brother and arm and arm with each other.

Romans 8:14-17
14 All who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God;

15 for what you received was not the spirit of slavery to bring you back into fear; you received the Spirit of adoption, enabling us to cry out, ‘Abba, Father!’

16 The Spirit himself joins with our spirit to bear witness that we are children of God.

17 And if we are children, then we are heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, provided that we share his suffering, so as to share his glory.
