Romans 8:15 “So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, Abba, Father.” (NLT)
2 Corinthians 6:18 “And I will be your Father, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.” (NLT)
Psalm 89:26 “He shall cry to Me, ‘You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.” (NKJV)
1 John 3:1 “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.” (ESV)
…There are going to be holes in out lives that people will never fill, no matter how flawed or seemingly perfect they may be. We were made to get our love from God. And it takes time...and practice, and even some blood, sweat, and tears to learn to seek HIM and only HIM for our fulfillment, joy, and hope. And for the praise and love only a Father can give us. It won't be an instantaneous "Oh, I'm just going to be happy 24/7" thing. It is a process, one very few make it through. But once we get to that point, the world can't hurt us.
