After Galatians 4:1-7
The heir will inherit
the family estate, but
consider that one word: will.
The heir is wealthy,
but not yet.
The heir controls much,
But not yet.
Inheritance is a future
thing. In the meantime,
the heir is managed
by parents, guardians,
overseers, until the time
is full.
But (another critical word),
when the time is full,
when the time has come,
the heir is set free,
receives the inheritance,
assumes the power
promised.
