Father
God relates to us as a Father, in the most intimate way. The earthly fathers he gives us are imperfect but real representations of God's love for us, and the ways He gives Himself for us in so many ways...
Father
God wanted to show what He’s like,
And so He gave men His own name:
He called them “Father”, gave His love,
And gave great strength a smile could tame…
The men He gave His image to,
Will often stumble, often fall;
But still, when you look past the scars,
You see their love shine through it all…
And though they fail so many times
It’s God we read between the lines…

I finally got to actually read it slowly... :-) I really enjoyed this one, Ben. And I know you'll be the most incredible father, though you'll fall at times. I love you!
