The Love of a Father

Leave a comment

Friend, there is nothing like the insulating protectiveness and love of a true father. These men have a just cause to be on guard and protect those in their home. They are his. They belong to him; he will let no foul beast or person come against them unchallenged. He will provide for their care and run to the aid of the little one that cries out to him. Our Heavenly Father is no different. He set the course for all other fathers to follow, and His love for us is true, right, undying, pure, and protective. When the battles of life rage against us, God’s got you covered. There may be times when we may feel the enemy’s strike against us but the final victory will always belong to our Heavenly Father who surrounds and defends His people: “As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore” (Psalm 125:2, ESV).

You Are the One

1 Comment

You are the One we look to for hope and healing.
You are the One who gives new life so appealing.

You are the One who brings wholeness from brokenness.
You are the One who restores ruins and messes.

You are the One, the mender of breaches.
You are the One for whom my soul gladly reaches.

You are the One who shelters and saves.
You are the One who raises the dead from graves.

You are the One, all-encompassing truth.
By faith, my sight needs no visible proof.

For You are the One who saves from eternal fire.
You are the One, my glory and holy desire.

You are the One who bears us on eagle’s wings.
You are the One who carries us forever to eternity.

You are the One who saves to the utmost.
You are the One in whom my soul gladly boasts.

You are the One, the only one God true and right,
to Whom none can compare, my soul’s joyful delight.

“To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him?” Isaiah 40:18

“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:” Deuteronomy 6:4

“I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.” Isaiah 45:5, 6

A Matthew 6:30 Promise | Words to Live By

Leave a comment

Caring for someone is not a trivial thing. The importance of one’s love for you can be felt in what they do for you and by the words and the way they speak over you. The Father’s care for us can be experienced by both. In our daily lives, we see His love manifested in myriad ways. And in His Word, we read what He thinks of us and how important we are to Him. In Matthew 6:30, Jesus confirms this by telling us, “Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?” You cannot begin to understand how important you are to God, just trust that you are. And the daily things that concern us are not a worry in the heart of the Father. “He’s got you!” Those words are not just another casual phrase to be tossed about. They are words of promise you can stand upon in faith today!

He Knows Your Walking!

“He knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the Lord thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.” Deuteronomy 2:7

He knows your walking.  Every step you take has His attention.  The wilderness comes with many perils.  The wilderness can be a place of lack, yet God reminds His people, “thou hast lacked nothing,” Deut. 2:7.

What wilderness are you in right now?  Our God knows.  Does your desert place bring tears?  Is companionship missing in your world?  Nothing is hidden from the eyes of our Father.  The steps you take in this weary land are marked with His supreme knowledge.

When Moses rehearsed their traveling through this land, he reminded them of the good times and the bad – and yet, through it all, God saw their walking.  As His beloved, He knew where they were and what they were dealing with.

The same can be said for each of us.  God sees the paths we take.  He sees the trudging through the murky times.  He sees the hard roads traveled.  He recognizes that every trip is not a time of prancing through the peaceful meadows, but there are hills to climb, some slippery, some steep.  He recognizes the sweat and the effort it takes to keep going.  He sees every choice, every footfall.

My friends,  some days when we walk it seems we are walking through a river of tears, walking in waters too deep with currents that are too strong.  But the encouragement for our souls is it is not lost on our God and no step we take is wasted.  Every step in the right direction, regardless of how hard it may be, will lead to our place of promise.

Some days it may seem that we are walking in circles – not sure what we are doing or where we are going.  But while we are walking, we can walk with hope.  We can walk in faith (yes, even if you can’t feel it, we can still step out in faith by just moving forward).  We can walk in the confidence in the victory that lay ahead for us.

In the unsure moments, the disappointing moments, and the hurting moments, He sees it all.

Knowing that God sees me walking through this great wilderness brings a special measure of comfort to my soul.  The wilderness may take its toll on you, and it may even make us question some things along the way – but, even then, and even there, our steps are known.  Our hearts can be filled with this great truth even in the wilderness.

My friends, we hold so much in us while we are walking through this wilderness.  We experience so much in this dry place.  Each of us has encountered a wilderness area we may be walking through, have walked through, or are about to walk through.  It is in this season of life, that the struggle from day to day can be overwhelming.  For some, you have walked so long and so far, that you may feel like you are lost in a desert.  But, no matter what stage of your walking, God still sees you.  His eyes have not left you and His heart is for you.
