Meditate On
God Is a Good Father
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
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 can
find. How much more then, will your heavenly Father give good things to you
when you ask Him!
Beloved, 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,
believe that you have received it from Him, and you will have it (see Mark
11:24)!
