Title:
A Father’s Love Reflects God’s Heart
Scripture:
“As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.” – Psalm 103:13
Devotional:
Father’s Day is a special time to honor and thank the fathers and father figures in our lives. The Bible tells us that a father’s love and compassion are a beautiful picture of God’s own love for us. Just as a caring dad guides, protects, and teaches his children, God cares for each of us with patience and kindness.
Fathers are called to lead their families with wisdom, strength, and love. The Bible says, “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4). This means fathers should encourage, teach, and support their children, helping them grow in faith and character.
No father is perfect, but every dad can look to God as the best example. God’s love never fails, and He is always ready to forgive, guide, and bless us. Today, let’s thank God for our fathers and pray that He gives them strength, wisdom, and joy as they lead their families.
Prayer:
Dear God, thank you for my dad. Bless him with health, happiness, and strength. Please help him to lead our family with love and wisdom, just as you lead us. Fill his heart with peace and joy today and always. Amen.
