We Are More than Just Children of a King

A friend of mine said the following today, in reference to common statements about being children of a King: 
When the Israelites in the meridian of time looked for the Messiah they looked for him to come in glory with conquering armies. He came instead as the child of a carpenter born in the most humble of circumstances.  
Are we not children of the Good Shepherd? Are we not children of the Master Healer? Are we not children of the patient teacher? Are we not the children of the "Servant of all"? 
May we follow in those footsteps as well.
Amen - and amen.
