The Earth is our mother just turning around, with her trees in the forest and roots underground. Our father above us whose sigh is the wind, paint us a rainbow without any end.
We are the sum of the Father's love for us
He that has trained his children for heaven, rather than for earth- for God rather than for man- he is the parent who will be called wise at the last.
I always wondered why God was supposed to be a father," she whispers. Fathers always want you to measure up to something. Mothers are the ones who love you unconditionally, don't you think?
But I was sure of one thing. If God were a father, with children, that cleanliness I had been feeling wasn't God.
In the roughest moments, remember: God is our Father; God does not abandon his children.
Whenever your kids are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to His kids.
Today I wonder why it is God refers to Himself as 'Father' at all. This, to me, in light of the earthly representation of the role, seems a marketing mistake.
