Blessing For Todayគំរូ

The Heavenly Father 

I have three children. And my third child is Stella Ramola. As I would be out of station most of the time on account of my ministry, my daughter Stella would miss me a lot. One such time, she pestered my wife by asking her, “When will Daddy come? I want to talk to him.” When I answered her call, she asked me, “Daddy, when will you come?” I asked her, “Why should I come?” “To hug me” pat came her reply. 

For children, their father is a very important part of their lives. The love of a father provides security and meets all their needs. If my daughter feels lost even when she misses me for very few days, what would be the plight of those who have lost their father forever?! This was the plight of Abraham too, when he lost his father Terah in the Bible. But, what happened? The Lord appeared to him. He gave him a wonderful promise. It strengthened Abraham who was fatherless and childless. He was comforted by the heavenly Father. In what manner? God blessed Him with a child Isaac according to His promise. The child brought laughter into his life. His joy was complete. His sorrow turned to joy. My beloved, everything will be restored in your life because God is your Father. 

Prayer

“Loving heavenly Father, though I am surrounded by many people, I feel like an orphan. I have lost my loved one forever. Lord, as You consoled Abraham who was fatherless and childless, I come seeking for Your comfort and Your life-giving words. Help me to live a prosperous life on this earth. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.” 

‘You are not an orphan; You have a heavenly Father!’
