God’s Love and Presence

The Perfect Father

How would you describe your earthly father? Was he “perfect”? Did you know him or was he an absentee dad? Was he loyal or disloyal? On this side of heaven, there are no perfect fathers. But we have a Heavenly Father who is…um…heavenly. He’s perfect. What a blessing it is to know that He is here for us. He loves us. He is available 24/7. He wants us to come to Him with our needs. 

Not only that, our Heavenly Father has shown us in His Son, Jesus, how we are to live as His adopted children. We have the opportunity and responsibility to pattern our lives after Him. 

How do we do that? We watch how Jesus related to people. We consider our thoughts and actions in light of His teachings. We confess our shortcomings and ask Him to conform us to His way of thinking and acting.

Your Heavenly Father loves you and has His eye on you. Call to Him in your need. Wait silently for Him to speak to you and direct you. Follow how He guides you. 

Lord, thank You for being my HEAVENLY FATHER. Thank You for loving me and adopting me into Your family. I love and worship You.
