I never knew my biological father growing up. I had a great childhood with a loving mother, step-dad and brother, but when I got older I sought out my birth father. I wanted to learn more about where I came from. When I met him he wasn’t interested though and he disappeared again out of my life.
Then I sought out God, wanting again to know where I came from, but this time I was not let down. In God I found my true, spiritual Father, the one who made me and formed me. And he made right every wrong.
Sometimes I get distracted by philosophy, approaches and books about God, and I forget that He is not a system or a ritual or a philosophy, He is my Father who loves me and desires to know me.
It was never about a system of belief, it was always about a person.Thank you Jesus for the new life you have given me, in relationship with you.
This applies equally for those who experienced an abusive father as children. ❤

It is lovely of what you said that God can never a system, a phylosophy or a belief. I agree. Yes, to me God is my eternal Father, who is always loving. Not a physical father but a spiritual father. I am a spirit and He is the Supreme Spirit.
