Hi All… And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit - TopicsExpress



          

Hi All… And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” Gal 4:6. The word father brings up different images for everyone. To some it brings the picture of love, laughter, respect, and acceptance. While others associate the term father with fear, rejection, and disappointment. That is why it is so important that we not to take our understanding of our heavenly Father from our experience, but take it from Scripture. We undoubtedly had an imperfect earthly father, perhaps even one who brought us harm. But, as in all of our Christian life, the key is not to understand the Bible based on our experience, but to understand our experience in light of the Bible. God is our model of a father in the truest sense of the word. If this has not been our experience, it can be now. There is One who has adopted each od us and who wants to love us in a way we have never experienced. We can take comfort and strength from Him— our Heavenly Father. Blessings.
