"I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High."
Psalms 82:5-7
This is a powerful statement, and yet verses around it indicate that even though God explains this to us, we don't really understand what that means. Being children of God means that we have amazing potential, and the ability (with God's help) to follow in Christ's footsteps and become more like him, but we live far beneath our privileges rather than becoming all we could be.
I'm not sure that I have any great advice about how to solve that problem, but today perhaps it is something that we can all think about individually... how to live closer to the spirit, how to really use our talents rather than letting them lie dormant... how to make a real difference for good, because surely as children of God we have that ability. We just need to figure out how. So let's talk to God about it, and start figuring, and then doing something about it. :)
