Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God - children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
John 1:12-13
When you receive Jesus, you join a family. You not only get a heavenly Father, you get earthly fathers, too. Fathers and mothers and sisters and brothers and by the grace of God sons and daughters as well. Thanks be to God! Perhaps the thought of family doesn't spring forth thanksgiving for you. Then be thankful all the more. Because there is no family like the family of God. Amen.
