Our Father (Part 2)

 As said previously, when we come to know in our inner most being that God is our real Father, everything changes.  One change is that it simplifies life (I’m sure we all say amen to that).  A second implication of God being Father is that it takes away all fear-the fear of death, fear of sickness, fear of loss, fear of anything. If the God who created the universe is MY Father indeed, what is there to fear? I think about Matt Redman’s song-“If my God is with me, whom then shall I fear…”. I know this may sound simplistic –that’s because it IS simplistic! However, this “simplicity” was made available to us by the death of Jesus. Also, this does not mean that all problems, challenges and trials disappear but it does mean we view these things differently-from a son or daughter of God perspective. The fact is that we are in the school of becoming overcomers in life-not being overcome by life. God, in His infinite wisdom allows AND uses difficulties as tools to help us show us our true identity. Jesus was and is the example. Jesus faced real difficulties but He overcame what was before Him-He KNEW His Father.                                                                                                                                                 

Philippians 3:10   “…that I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death;…”

Think about: 
Do you have fears that need to go?
Do you live day to day conscience of the fact that God is YOUR Father?
