Father Says..

“Most birds were created to fly. Being grounded for them is a
limitation within their ability to fly, not the other way
around.
You, on the other hand, were created to be loved. So for you to
live as if you were unloved is a limitation, not the other way
around.
Living unloved is like clipping a bird’s wings and removing its
ability to fly. Not something I want for you.
Pain has a way of clipping your wings and keeping you from being
able to fly. And if left unresolved for very long, you can
almost forget that you were ever created to fly in the first
place.” ~Papa
Quote from 'The Shack'.

[/quote]I used to think that God made us to love Him; and that
is true too; but it was more important to Him to have someone to
love. So He made us and loves us even when we don't love Him.
It has to be that way, doesn't it? If our loving God is more
important to Him than His loving us, He must have failed somehow
in making us. . . .

They asked Him where He dwelt.
~I Dwell In Eternal Light~
“Our Lord Jesus Christ .... who only hath immortality,
dwelling in light which no man can approach unto”
1 Timothy 6: 15 – 17.
~I Dwell In Eternity~
“Thus saith the high and lofty One, that inhabiteth eternity,
whose Name is holy: I dwell in the holy place ...”
Isaiah 57: 15.
~I Dwell In Heaven~
“Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,
Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven,
and in the earth!
Psalm 113: 5-6
~I Dwell On the Throne~
“We have a high Priest,
who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the
heavens”
“The Author and finisher of our faith ...
who is set down at the right hand of the throne of God”
Hebrews 8: 6, & 12: 1.
~I Dwell In the Father’s Heart~
“Neither pray I for these alone,
but for them also which believe on me through their word;
that they all may be one;
as Thou, Father, art in me, and I in Thee,
that they also might be one in us:
that the world may believe that Thou hast sent me.
And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them;
that they might behold my glory,
that they may be one, as we are one: I in thee, and Thou in me,
that they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that thou hast sent me,
and hast loved them as Thou hast loved me.
Father, I will that they also, whom Thou hast given me, be with
me where I am,
that they may behold my glory, which Thou hast given me:
for Thou lovest me from before the foundation of the world.
John 17: 20- 24.
~I Dwell In the Heart and the life of believers~
“Thus saith the high and lofty One, that inhabiteth eternity,
whose Name is holy:
I dwell in the holy place,
with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit ...”
Isaiah 57: 15.

“The problem is that many folks try to grasp some sense of who I
Am by taking the best version of themselves, projecting that to
the nth degree, factoring in all the goodness they can perceive,
which often isn’t much, and then call that God. And while it may
seem like a noble effort, the truth is that it falls pitifully
short of who I really Am.
I’m not merely the best version of you that you can think of.
I Am far more than that, above and beyond all that you can ask
or think.”
~Papa~
