“Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him. For He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust.” Psalms‬ ‭103:13-14‬ ‭KJV‬‬. One of the things that hinders many of God’s children is, that they have an unbalanced perception of Who God is. Oftentimes people become so focused on His divine attributes, that they forget His loving heart is touched by the feelings of our infirmities. Others see God as so Holy and Righteous that He is unapproachable. Some see Him more as the Judge, Who looks upon His creation with a frown of disapproval, ready to condemn. But when Jesus came, He said that He came to reveal the Father. He came to remind us that as our Heavenly Father, God is more compassionate towards His children than any earthly father. And rather than have an unhealthy fear and dread of Him, we should have a loving reverence that such a great God would be willing to be mindful of all of our needs and care for us. It is only when we see and know Him as our merciful and compassionate Father, that we can truly have the deep appreciation and love for Him that we should, and that He desires from us. May we lift our minds to see His loving heart and know Him as the Perfect Father He is.
