Dear Father,
I pray that the world would know You as Abba; that the
fatherless children of this world would have a Daddy. That those who’s fathers
are absent or abusive or negligent would know You as the ultimate Father, the
ultimate caregiver who loves to give good gifts to His children. That they
would be able to balance the notion of You being a God who is completely holy and righteous and
yet completely loving and completely kind.
May we come to you unhindered. May we seek you without fear. May we wish to please you because we love you. And may we know that Your love holds no conditions, no requirements, no have-to's, no limits. It is free, complete, unconditional and here. It has not left us alone. You have not abandoned us.
Oh God, that we would see you through eyes unveiled, not with the tints and cracks our earthly fathers have given us but with real vision. Help us see through the things we have experienced here on earth and to taste Heaven. May we forever approach your throne of grace and be overwhelmed by your love.
