Referring to Father-God in the Lord’s Prayer as our ‘Heavenly’ Father reminds us that He is different than our earthly fathers.
It’s hard for many to connect with God as Father, especially those that didn’t have a ‘good’ dad. Perhaps he was absent, or prone to mood swings. Even the best of earthly fathers make mistakes. None are perfect.
It’s good to remind yourself, that Father-God is different.
He is Holy, perfect in everyway. He is good.
We can trust Him.
And He is worthy of our honour, obedience and praise.
