From the first Adam till the last Adam, no son who bears the image of God lives up to the blessing of the firstborn, save one. Yet, time and time God has promised and followed through in blessing all who seek him. Much of the ensuing conflict between mankind erupts from the same well of envy that had “secondborns” plotting to take what was pledged to the firstborns despite the reminders that God will bless both! Yet in all this God remains faithful to us and adopts us upward as sons.
My prayer today is that all who struggle, suffer, or sorrow, be comforted in the arms of a welcoming father.
