My Heavenly Fathers Letter…Part 3


. I have been misrepresented by those who don't know me

John 8:41-44 

41 You are doing the things your own father does.” “We are not illegitimate children,” they protested. “The only Father we have is God himself.”

42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me.

43 Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say.

44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

. I am not distant and angry, but am the complete expression of love

1 John 4:16  

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.

. And it is my desire to lavish my love on you

1 John 3:1  

How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

. Simply because you are my child and I am your father

1 John 3:1  

How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
. I offer you more than your earthly father ever could

Matthew 7:11  

If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
