TRUSTING THE FATHER

TRUSTING THE FATHER

In his book, “Holy Sweat,” Tim Hansel relates this story about his relationship with his son:

One day, while Zac and I were out in the country, climbing around in some cliffs, I heard a voice from above me yell, “Hey Dad, catch me!” I turned around to see Zac joyfully jumping off a rock straight at me. He had jumped and then yelled “Hey Dad!” I became an instant circus act, catching him. We both fell to the ground. For a moment after I caught him I could hardly talk. When I found my voice again I gasped in exasperation: “Zac! Can you give me one good reason why you did that???” He responded with remarkable calmness: “Sure...because you’re my Dad.” His whole assurance was based on the fact that his father was trustworthy. He could live life to the hilt because I could be trusted.

Wow! Isn't that even more true for our covenant relationships with the Father?  We trust Him.  Therefore, we can live with peace, joy, and blessed assurance that He sees, knows and cares.

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
