The apostrophe indicates possession. This mark reminds us that from the very beginning from all eternity we have already been predestined as “possessions” of God our Father, and as such should we live. We received this indelible mark of divine possession in the mind of the Father in eternity before the world was made and implanted and marked in us at the moment of our Baptism.
“Even before the world was made God had already decided that we be one with Christ and that we be holy and spotless before His sight.” (Col 1:27)
“My dear children, you belong to God…; because God’s Spirit, who is in you, is greater than any other spirit that is in the world….We belong to God,…”(1 Jn 4:4-6)
To go back to this Divine Possession we need to form the habit and live the Divine Indwelling every moment of our life.
For the Greater Glory of God and the good of all.
