The Eternal Family

Corporations and kingdoms,Democracies and fascist regimes,For all their pomp and pretension,In the end, are temporary.They have a beginning,And they have an end.But family is eternal.It is the bedrock of existence.And the family of God is the only orderWithout beginning and without end.Just think about it, What are you When all else is stripped away,But a child of God,So that your deepest definition Is in relation to a Heavenly Parent.It is the ultimate identity,And it is the only authorityThat transcendsThe grave.
