We long to be a people who know our Father deeply—who remember that He has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints (Colossians
1:12), rescued us from the domain of darkness, and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son (
1:13). We long to be a people who trust that the Father’s ways are true and better, who seek the things above, where Christ is seated at His right hand (3:1), and who grow in wisdom and spiritual understanding (1:9–10).
