No matter the character of your earthly father or the state of your relationship with him, there is a perfect Father who wants to be in a perfect relationship with you.
Here’s the amazing and most freeing news for you and me today: God is the perfect Father. He’s not just a bigger version of your earthly dad, he’s the perfect Father. He’s the answer to every longing for a father’s acceptance, approval, support and love that you’ve ever experienced.
