I was reading a devotion from Dr. Charles Stanley the other day and it

touched my heart, so I wanted to share it with you. Please read it and let God use it to speak to you.

“Believers have two main responsibili-ties—to love God and to love people (Matt. 22:37-40). This is often done by serving. Where and how we serve is based upon our unique talents, skills, and calling, but the one place where we’re all expected to give of ourselves is the local church.”

“When you trusted Jesus as Savior, the Lord baptized you by the Holy Spirit into His church—the body of believers living all over the world but united by faith in Jesus Christ. You then chose, according to the will of God, to become part of a local, autonomous group of believers. He placed you there because He knows that you are needed (1 Cor. 12:18). You are significant to your

home church.”

“The church is more than a community. It’s an interdependent body with indi-vidual members created by God to func-tion in communion with one another. We Christians, like the world at large, are a diverse group of people, and we have to strive hard for unity. But our differences are actually something to be celebrated—each person uniquely con-tributes to God’s purpose. A church tru-ly operating as a unit, with all its varied gifts, talents, personalities, and intellects focused toward kingdom goals, must be a beautiful sight to the Lord.”

“Christianity is not a spectator religion. We all have jobs to do in God’s king-dom. The body of Christ functions most beautifully when all members resolve to serve God and each other to the best of their abilities (1 Cor. 12:25). What are you doing for your church?”

My Father and Your Father

Daphne Delay

Growing up, I was blessed to have two dads. My parents di-vorced when I was two years old, and a few years later, my mom remarried. I'm sure I confused people quite often be-cause I affectionately called both of them dad. In addition, I was also close to my granddad.

Now that I'm a Christian and have a relationship with my Heavenly Father, I feel privileged to have an understanding of loving and respecting more than one father-figure in my life.

I don't mean to say that there's any who are equal to our Heavenly Father, but sadly, people often struggle in their re-lationship with God if they've had an absentee-dad or one who was less than ideal. And because of this, they also struggle with Father's Day.

I once read an article that said Hallmark gave free cards to inmates on Mother's and Father's Day. Whereas they always ran out on Mother's Day, only a small, small percentage of cards were actually used by inmates for Father's Day.

This says a lot about our generation.

But regardless of upbringing, Jesus made a statement to Mary after His resurrection that should encourage all of us.

"Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father and to My God and your God'" (John 20:17*).

From that day forward, no child has ever been an orphan.

Jesus bridged the gap and gave all of us an open relationship with OUR FATHER GOD. And in a great show of love, even

before we came to this revelation, our Heavenly Father put people in our lives to reflect Him and His love for us.

Maybe it was a teacher or a coach; maybe the father-

figure was the grocery store owner who always asked how you were doing. Perhaps God showed Himself to

you through a pastor or Sunday school leader.

And yet, there may be some reading this who are still think-ing, I didn't have that in my life. I understand. The devil has

been a great counterfeiter for centuries. He has had an obsession with perverting everything good that God is—including the image of father.

All I know for sure is, God has worked very hard to make sure you found Him—through a real dad, a stepdad, a grand-father, or simply an obedient man. "A father of the father-less… is God in His holy habitation" (Psalm 68:5*).

An unknown author once said:

A dad is someone who wants to catch you before you fall, but instead picks you up, brushes you off, and lets you try again. A dad is someone who wants to keep you from making mistakes, but instead lets you find your own way, even though his heart breaks in silence when you get hurt. A dad is someone who holds you when you cry, scolds you when you break the rules, shines with pride when you succeed, and has faith in you even when you fail.

I have to agree. I've had all of these—but none through just one. And now I see that my Heavenly Father was there all along, speaking through and using many to mold me.

So on this Father's Day (and every Father's Day), I am grate-ful to Him—and all He used. I hope you are too.
