There are as many applications as there are presenting issues; frequent applications include:

forgiveness process applied to self and others, identity as a child of God in response to shame and other self-concept struggles, finding solace in submitting to God’s plan/providence, applying grace to self and others.

—Jeffery

How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
1 John 3:1

Now if we are children, then we are heirs–heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
Romans 8:17

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8
