Meditate
On
…what
man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil,
know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father
who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
Matthew
7:9–11
God Is A Good Father
How
do we know that God is a good God and a good Father?
Jesus
dealt with this question simply by asking another question: “If earthly
fathers, imperfect as they are, know how to give good gifts to their children,
don’t you think that your loving Father who is in heaven will be even better?”
My
friend, if your child asks you for bread, would you give him a stone? Certainly
not! You would give him the best bread you could find. How much more then, will
your heavenly Father give good things to you when you ask Him!
Beloved,
meditate on His love and His tender mercies for you today. Know in your heart
that God is a good Father to you. So if you need something today, just ask Him
for it. And as you ask Him, know that it is His joy to see you, His beloved
child, blessed with His best!
Blessings,
Joseph
