Our Father in Heaven

Luke 11:1-13

Today's is Father's Day, and ironically, also my dad's birthday. To be honest, my father and I don't have a really good relationship. We rarely speak, and when we do, it's either to debate or to inform each other of something of importance. He is Buddhist, and I am Christian, and I have tried reaching out to him, but not enough. Despite that, he is also the father God has placed in my life, and although he isn't perfect, he is a good fatherly figure to me. 


There are no perfect Fathers on Earth. There is only one perfect Father and that is God. In this passage, he clearly states when we pray, we must acknowledge that before everything else.


Fathers everywhere believe that money can ultimately bring happiness, but no, it will bring contentment for a short period of time. What children need is their father's time, something money can't purchase! How lucky is it that we have a father that is there all the time for us? 


"If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit tot those who ask him!" [Luke 11:13]


My father has bought many things with me, and sometimes yes, the times we spend together are unforgettable (and awkward at times xD), but how much more will my heavenly Father give when I ask?

Our heavenly Father's arms never tire of holding His children.
