my Father: a guiding Father

 my Father: a guiding Father by ric gustafson

We like doing things for ourselves. Why do we need a guide?. We try to do it ourselves even though our life is tough and full of danger and struggles. We need help and direction. We do not have the wisdom to guide ourselves. 

God knows us more than anybody else. God created us. He sent his Son to redeem us. He sent his Spirit to be involved in our lives. That's what good fathers do. Good fathers want to guide their children.

God is my Heavenly Father. He is my present faithful guide. Not only does God want to guide us, he wants to counsel us and make our paths straight. According to Galatians 4, we are heirs of the Living God. We are God's sons. In Jesus, we are a child of God. 

We can always talk to our Heavenly Father. God will guide us in the right direction. He may delay his answer. In his time, his guidance will come through. God loves us very much.
