* It's good to suffer loss, for it draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves. * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God.

Our Earthly Fathers and Our Heavenly Father

Some questions for you to probe and ponder about:
  1. What recollections do you have about your dad?

  2. How has your relationship with your dad affected you? Others? Your view of God?

  3. How can fathers love their children (Ex 20:5; Dt 5:9; 6:5; Col 3:19; Eph 5:25)?

  4. Why do you think Jesus teaches us to call God "Father" (Mt 6:9; Lk 11:2)?

  5. When his son Absalom died, how did King David express the heart of a father (2 Sam 18:33)?

  6. What is God like according to Isa 9:6; Ex 34:6-7; Ps 103:13?

  7. Why is Jesus the way to the Father (Jn 14:6; Mt 27:46; Mk 15:34)?
