Devotional: The Affirmation and Approval of Our Father (1)
We all have a desperate need to know that we belong. As children, we have a need to hear certain words from our parents (especially from our dads). Words like “I love you” and “I am proud of your” are extremely important during our upbringing. We are made in the image of our Dad (Genesis 1:26). God wants to affirm us by saying we are “good enough” for Him and that no one comes to Him will be rejected.
Reflective questions:
- How does our Father feel about us? Let us look at Jeremiah as an example of how God feels about us (Jeremiah 1:4-5, Jeremiah 29:11 and Jeremiah 31:3)
- Do you think our Father wants to be your friend? (John 15:15).
- What do you think it means to have God as your friend?
