The Father Revealed

The Father Revealed

We can love the Lord and still carry expectations of Him shaped by our failures, weaknesses or sense of what we deserve. Those expectations can affect how we hear Him and understand His presence in difficult circumstances.

This short reflection turns our attention to Jesus, who came to make the Father known. In His compassion toward the fearful, His restoration of the rejected and His care for the broken, we discover the heart of the Father.
