Neither male nor female but Spirit. Referred to as He so that our puny 3 1/2 pound brains could understand that He is the Author of all things.
When asked Who He was, He simply said,
"I AM."
He is unlike anything we could possibly comprehend. Unlike our Earthly fathers, He will never leave you nor forsake you.
He loves and forgives unconditionally. He puts our misdeeds (no matter how heinous) in the deepest sea of forgetfulness. He is slow to anger and plenteous in Mercy. Even though we had forsaken Him, and all He had to offer us, He will run to us, hug us, and throw a feast for us when we return to Him!
He reads to us, and sings over us.
He gave us the Greatest Gift of all.
His own Son.
The Lord Jesus Christ.
Who died for us that we would not taste death. He was separated from His Father for a time (on the cross as He took on our sins) that we would be joined with Him eternally.
God the Father.
My Father.
Your Father.
Let's honor Him today!
I meant to make this piece longer, but my phone is heating up and I need to give it a rest. I might come back to edit it later...
