The shoes we wear, the car we drive, or the house in which we live, do not define our status with God. We are (1) regenerated by the Spirit, (2) related to God as Father, (3) united with other believers, (4) assured of salvation, (5) aided in prayer, (6) comforted and helped when suffering as a Christian, and (7) made confident about our future glory, joy, and guaranteed inheritance.We can praise God for all this because as Troy Bush points out, God initiated our adoption and Christ fulfilled all legal requirements to make it effective and permanent. Our adoption status is not dependent on us, thank God!
Your class may have someone in it who has special knowledge of adoption that you can call on to make a short statement. Another idea is to sing a praise song to God and challenge the class to mediate on Him as they sing.

Ethel, You have a gift for encouraging others for sure! Post anytime you have a question. Maybe someone will jump in and answer. Let other teachers in your church know about the site. Hopefully, even more can benefit.
Many thanks for stopping by,
Ronnie
