Heavenly Father

FATHER: to come forth from

We came forth from our Father. In the beginning, God made man in His own image and likeness.

No matter what our upbringing has been, regardless of who our earthly father is, we have a Heavenly Father who loves us unconditionally. We are sons and daughters of the Living God. We are completely LOVED and ACCEPTED. We are FULFILLED completely in Him.

It is our Father who establishes us in our worth, value, and identity as sons and daughters. All that we are and the reason why we are here as children of God is because of our Heavenly Father’s love for us which was proven when He sent His son Jesus Christ to die for us.

WHO WE ARE

The Bible says that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14). God created billions of individuals, yet gave us each our own look, strengths, personality, and potential. We can live in confidence that God made every one of us a unique masterpiece of His creative genius.

WHY WE ARE HERE

Our ultimate purpose is to love God and love other people. As Jesus put it, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’” (Matthew 22:37-39).

Knowing our Father’s love with such depth will leave us completely saturated and satisfied in life!
