How often do you think about God as your father? We often address Him as such in prayer. But do we interact with Him that way? Should we? So many times in scripture our relationship with God is compared to the parent/child relationship. So many times earthly parents fall short of that ideal. When I think and read about some amazing parental examples it seems like the best picture of what our relationship should look like. But because of the brokenness of this picture it seems that many people do not attempt to relate to God in this way. Possibly they use some other example. Is this helpful? Is this sufficient? What examples are more helpful than others? Which ones fall short?
Comments welcome
