Do You Have Your Father’s Eyes?

Do You Have Your Father’s Eyes?  I’m not referring to blue, brown, or hazel-colored eyes that may match those of your biological father but, I am speaking of spiritual eyes that match those of your Heavenly Father.  Of course, there are no earthly words that can accurately describe the greatness, excellence, and magnificence of our God.  However, we know what His attributes are because the Holy Bible tells us that God is love (1Jn 4:8).  According to Psa 145:8, He is full of mercy, and compassion, and doesn’t get angry easily.  He is faithful (1Cor 1:9).  The descriptions of His character are too many to mention in this blog.  However, it’s enough to allow you to examine yourself to see if it is apparent that your life shows that you have a relationship with the Almighty God.

For Instance:

  • Do you see as He sees?
  • Do you like what He likes?
  • Do you hate what He hates?
  • Do you feel what He feels?
  • Do you listen to things that please His ears?
  • Is your heart filled with compassion?
  • Do you find it easy to forgive others or do you keep score and hold grudges?
  • Do you love everyone?

Do you have your Father’s eyes?  Can people look at you and see so much of God in your life that they can feel His goodness emanating from you?   I’m sure that the Lord smiles when He sees His children exhibiting His character.  We are not perfect and will certainly fall short of getting things right every time but, we can be confident that He is always there with love, mercy, wisdom, correction, and forgiveness to help us do better and continue in our walk with Him.

Just as a good earthly father is proud of his children when they do things that are right such as walking in integrity, treating people with kindness, dignity, and respect, getting back up when they fall, and the list goes on; our Heavenly Father is proud of us when we do things that show forth His character.

Let’s be intentional about having our Father’s eyes and seeing as He sees.

 

Reflections

  1. What part of your character do you think pleases God?
  2. What part of your character needs improvement?
  3. Have a heart-to-heart talk with the Lord and ask Him to help you let more of His nature shine in and through you.
  4. Listen to the powerful song by Amy Grant titled “My Father’s Eyes.”   Take note of how the song makes you feel.  The song can be found on YouTube at the following link:  https://youtu.be/PECqVbfdreE

The Greatness of His Love

The Greatness of His Love

The love that our Heavenly Father has for us is so great!  When you actually take the time to think about it, there is nothing that compares to the greatness of His love.  In fact, most of us the greatness of his love we can’t really grasp the totality of it because it is much too large for our human frames, so at best, we must receive it by faith.  We must allow His love to erase our biggest fears and tear down any strongholds.  One of the ways that we do this is by trusting the fact that He is the wise, true, omnipotent, compassionate God and so much more!

Trust that He’s far greater than any fear we can ever face.  He’s even with us while we’re experiencing the fear, but ultimately He wants us to turn it over to Him because He loves us so much and wants us to live totally free and not be tormented by fear.  He wants His children to be free from things that keep us bound and He wants us to realize that He is our complete source of strength and freedom because of His great love for us.  He is motivated by love because He is love!

He is the absolute best counselor.  All of our answers are found in Him.  There are times when we may need an actual human being to share our thoughts and feelings with, but even then, His wisdom will direct us to the right person.

This could potentially be a neverending blog because God’s love never ends.  On a daily basis, we have access to a continual flow of His love.  We have so much to be grateful for.
