'Why I Love My Father': A Father's Day Tribute
The important thing is to find pathways to affection, like playfully wrestling, serving a hearty lunch, or covering your child with a warm blanket. As these studies suggest, those are the moments that children will remember for the rest of their lives—and which can help them to flourish in adulthood. I was not as lucky as you to have a loving father. I was most blessed to find Our Heavenly Father at the tender age of 18. Having a very abusive father, my life was in turmoil.
But he is not expected to put the children and wife above his job. The job comes first, and whatever is left over, he is free to do as he wishes. No wonder many fathers go home late from work, oftentimes while their children are asleep. Many of us have a lot of knowledge of God, but our hearts have not yet experienced or encountered Him. Therefore, we read the scriptures and we're like, “Yes, God loves me.
He has also taught me the power of love and faith. What I loved about him was that he supported my interests and activities (electronics!) as he as was an engineer. I wished I had developed a stronger communication and bond with him in my teenage years – but that is easy to say now that my adolescent years are past. The original plan was that both parents would creatively weave their different ways of loving into a tapestry of knitted emotions, verbal expressions, affectionate displays, and intellectual harmony.

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

Because I did not know my Heavenly Father I did not see Him for who He truly is. For me, I would say GOD IS MY FATHER. I see God as a protective, wise, LOVING, Father who is the perfect balance of love and pure devotion and wise discipline. It’s the sweetest thing to be a parent of a daughter.

"When I come home, my daughter will run to the door and give me a big hug, and everything that's happened that day just melts away." When we encounter His love, it is an experiential and felt thing. That could be being filled with a rush of peace or experiencing Him in your emotions. God interacts with many of us through our hearts and our feelings.
