There is an old Negro Hymnal that speaks of God love for us so greatly.
That he promises that if our Father and mother forsake us that he will be our Father and mother.
In song it says he will not only be my Father my mother but my brother and sisters as well.
That God would be my everything.
God wants to be your everything will you let be your everything.
2 CORINTHIANS 6:18 "I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and
daughters, Says the LORD Almighty."
My dad was a great dad he tried his best to be a good dad and he was my mother was illiterate but
she knew the word of God and wanted me to know God also. Many people in this county did not
have great parents who loved them and showed them love and spoke to them about God as my parents did.
Earthly fathers may fail us, but Scripture reveals that our Father God is much better than any earthly parent. God is perfect, and He never fails!
MATTHEW 7:11 "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven
give good things to those who ask Him!
ISAIAH 49:15 "Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have
compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet
I will not forget you.
You will face problems in life, but no matter what you face,
your Father God will be there to take care of you.
What did God mean when He promised to be a Father to you?
A father is someone stronger, more capable, and more
knowledgable than you are, and thus able to provide for you
when you are not able to do so for yourself.
A good father assumes responsibility for his children, to
provide for them, care for them, and train them so they can be
successful.
A school may decide to "expel" a child who is not responding as
they wish. But a good father will continue to care for their
child, no matter what.
A child does not have to be perfect to be loved and provided
for by a good parent. Nor do you have to be perfect for God to
love you. God loves you simply because you are His child, not
because you are perfect.
A good father will correct you, but His aim is to provide
encouragement, not discouragement. And a good father never
expects more from a child than the child is capable of doing.
Also a good father never does anything that would harm his
child. Every good and perfect gift comes from our Father God,
and anything harmful is from our enemy the devil.
If you are a Christian believer then Almighty God promises to
be a Father to you! What a comforting thought! This should
cause you to face life with confidence.
A man attempting to daily die to himself and become the true servant of the Lord and not his flesh.
