Never Enough
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.”
(Romans 8:28)
Chris never felt quite “good enough??? for her dad.? Even as an adult, she still felt his stinging ridicule.?
Dr. David Stoop says, “The first thing to recognize is that your father is probably never going to change.???? Chris had to realize her dad would only change if and when he allowed God to change him.?
Then, God led Chris to make some changes in her own life.? She set boundaries to limit any of his hurtful behaviors.? But the most important change was to forgive her dad.? There could be no healing until she did.? Chris began to see her father through the eyes of her heavenly Daddy.? Abba God knows you’re not perfect, but loves you anyway.
Friend, God will help you forgive your earthly father.? Trust your heavenly Father.
