A Proud Dad

I don't think I love anyone more than my son. He brings me such joy and delight. He is far from perfect in his behavior but I know those things will be worked out eventually. There is such a purity, innocence, freedom, simplicity, beauty, and grace about the way he lives. He is a reflection of what it looks like to be loved by our Heavenly Father.

What does our relationship with the Father look like? Are we free to be ourselves? Do we experience joy in His presence? Are we secure in knowing all of our needs are met by Him? Do we believe Abba has our best interest in mind? Is He always available to us, willing to talk, laugh, play, or just snuggle? The answer to all these questions would be yes if we had a good dad. God is the best daddy anyone could ever have. May we draw closer to our Father and be transformed by his perfect love.

"Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48 (NKJV)
