“For you are our father. Were Abraham not to know us, nor Israel to acknowledge us, You, LORD, are our father, our redeemer you are
named from of old.”
– Isaiah 63:16
Live the Faith! Tip of the Week:
We Christians are the only world religion that sees God as our father. What a beautiful thing to be able to call the creator of the universe ‘father’. Even more, we as Catholic men are invited to participate in the very fatherhood of our God.
Take some time in prayer this week to thank God for the invitation to participate in his fatherhood and ask Him for the grace to be as loving and generous to our children as He is to us.
Dr. John Bergsma is a is a professor of Theology at the Franciscan University of Steubenville. He will be featured in the all new year of TMIY, All Things New, coming this fall.
