Riches Inherited

Maybe we haven't experienced it first hand but we have heard of someone who has inherited something great from someone else.  Now usually those who inherit something are very close to the person giving it, and if there is a big family those closest to the person get the best.  Our heavenly Father is different.  In verse 6 from the New Living Translation it says, "And this is God's plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God's children.  Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus."  Did you read that, all share equally in the riches because we belong to Christ Jesus.  No matter your position here on earth you receive the same riches that all children of God are blessed with if you believe in the Good News!  I don't know about you but that is exciting to me.  I don't have to be the richest person here on earth, or be liked by the most people, or any of that, God says that if I believe in the Good News and belong to Christ Jesus I will inherit the riches he promises to all His children.  What a blessing that we are all equal in His eyes.
