He is Your Father ~




I found this on an encouragement website and it so encouraging. 
I wanted to share it with you.
“He is your Father, and His role is to protect you; He will comfort you
 and guide you.He will feed you; He will carry you when you are weak.
 He will seek you out when you go
astray; He will help you in times of trouble. He will not let your enemies
go unpunished; He will cherish you like a father cherishes His child. When you fall,
 He will pick you up; when you don’t understand, He will always understand.

When you feel like life is weighing you down, He will lift you up.
  When you feel like giving up, He will encourage you to keep going.
When you are sad, He will lighten your spirits. When you need advice,
His line is open 24-7. When you feel unsafe, He will be your safety;
 when you are worried, He will be an ear to your concerns.
When you feel burdened, offer your burden to Him and He will take it.
  Where you have been burnt, He will make you beautiful; where you hurt,
He will heal.
  Whenever you feel lonely, He will always be with you.

Where others have not supported you, He will support you.
 When you feel discouraged, He will be your encouragement.
 Where you don’t know, He will tell you when the time is right.
When you feel unloved, remember that He has always loved you.

You see limitations; God sees opportunities.
You see faults; God sees growth.
 You see problems; God sees solutions. You see limitations;
  God sees possibilities.
You see life; God sees eternity.”
 
And this is one of  my favorite songs by the Crabb Family:
 
 
 

Have a blessed weekend.

This is so true, Mommy! No matter what we go through, Jesus is always right there; helping, encouraging, even allowing us to struggle at times. But He never leaves us. :)

Beautiful post, Mom!

And I love that song. We need to work on it.... ;)

Love you!!
