This is another day that I continue to strive with Father. No matter what he is doing, I can’t think of anyone better to run with. My commitment to him remains as strong as ever if not stronger. I have never loved something or someone the way that I love my heavenly Father. No child, wife, parent, friend, pet, great job, stuff, highs or whatever, can bring me the one thing that Father God just gives us all so naturally; unconditional love with a plan for us to have an abundant life. I know of no one that wakes up everyday with a plan just for me to have abundant life with no conditions.
Man’s best friend, the dog, may give unconditional love, but the dog can’t give a plan just so I may have abundant life. My parents may have provided the best possible life for me growing up, but it was not unconditional as it is with Father God. For me to receive unconditional love from the two people that caused my birth, I have to had come from them(condition). If I was born else where and then just left on their front porch, no willing how much I may be willing to accept them, they would not be as willing to give me unconditional love. It would not be their moral or legal responsibility(conditions). They would be willing to give me a ride to the hospital, police station, or children services to make sure I was put in the hands of public servants that get paid to take care of me until they found me a home.
Well of course, that’s the whole point, parents are suppose to love their kids unconditionally, but receiving this love is made possible by the fact that they are your birth or adopted legal parents(conditions). You can be the best child on the planet, but to get the unconditional love, you generally have to be their birth child or legally adopted child. You can’t just be any child on the block, and receive this unconditional love. We are a people of rules, regulations, and conditions; so our love is given based on rules, regulations and conditions. You break the rules, regulations, or conditions, you break the love: it then becomes limited or it ends.
Now when it comes to Father God, you can receive His unconditional love no matter who’s child you are. You can be just any born child at any age on through adulthood, and at any time that you want to accept Him, you can have His unconditional love. Just show up on His front porch, and he will gladly receive you. The rules for you will be the exact same rules for me. No matter how long you’ve already been with him, who came to him first, or whatever your last name maybe, it’s all the same for all of us: no double standards, and no conditions. If you or I come up short, and stumble along the path, His love dose not become limited or ends. He continues to love us, and stands ready to love us even more. How about that?!
This is why I love Father so much. His love is there for all of us without condition.
