Fatherhood of God

Matt.6:9 Pray then like this: "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.
The definition of hallowed: holy, consecrated, sacred
God is our Father!
We are evil, He is good.
We have limited wisdom, He has infinite wisdom.
We have imperfect love. He has perfect love.
We are under the care of our heavenly Father, He loves us, He understands us, He forgives us, He provides for us, He disciplines us and He leads us.
We are the heavenly Father's children!
This is what we have in Him!
 He has given us a new name, a new spirit, and new brothers and sisters.
We have access to God's presence, we are no longer afraid, we have His friendship and we now have an inheritance in His kingdom.
As His children, we worship Him, we glorify Him, we imitate Him, we obey Him and we reflect Him in our lives.
We care for the orphans, not because we are rescuers but because we have been rescued!
We pass the gospel on to the next generation because we want to add to the kingdom (make disciples).
We anticipate God's promise of a future with no pain, no tears, no sin and an eternity filled with His holy presence.
