Dads Are to be an Example of our Heavenly Father

From June 19, 2011 -- Psalms 103:13, "As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him."

Jesus wants us to know from our experiences of being a father on earth to know the Father in heaven. God is the true Father. His very nature is the God of Love. Fatherhood was the glory and the blessedness of the divine being. Our fatherhood on earth has been given as a reflection of His, and to lead us to a participation in its honor and joy. We, too, are to taste the blessedness of producing a child in our likeness. In him or her, we will find the object of our love, the reflection of our image, and a companion and helper in all our work.
