			<description><![CDATA[My own experience is not uncommon. Comming to Christ was a new beginning for me but not the end of my Spiritual journey. My dad was not a believer and as such was a bit hostile towards his Jesus freak son. I needed men to Disciple me but this did not happen until later in my Journey. What is lacking is men like the apostle Paul, who makes it clear how many men may influence a man, but there is a need for Spiritual fathers. ( For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.) I want to be a Disciple and a Discipler. Countless churches are missing this,]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Good observations on how God treats our "fatherless" wounds. I've had the wound as well. I would add one other encouragement to the fatherless...purpose in your heart that by God's grace you'll do all you can to be the father (or mother) you need to be to your kids. Research shows that the positive contributions of a father in a child's life are numerous and far-reaching, across social and academic and spiritual areas. The worst thing we can do is contribute to more fatherlessness by repeating those patterns and choices in our own families. A father in the home that points his family to our Heavenly Father is the most effective father of all.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Being the father of 10 children, I am constantly faced with the reminder that how I fulfill my role as a father will help pave the way for my children to embrace the love of their Heavenly Father and the saving grace of Yeshua. Indeed our job as parents is to point our children to Christ, but a good earthly picture will make it easier for young people to turn to their Heavenly Father.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Having worked with men ministries for many years, common factor I see is that men who fail / struggle to 'overcome', did not have or had a 'weak' father figure. In prison ministry, I have found 70% did not have the father figure they wanted... We have several generation(S) that have not the father figure they needed.... WE need to break that cycle with the Grace of God our Father ...... mimic Him, be the father to fatherless...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I keenly felt the absence of my father who died when I was 9. Sadly there were no uncles or grandfathers who could step in to fill that void. I often wonder what my formative years would have been like had a Godly Man stood in the gap for me. I did not see "God" in another man until I was in my late 30's and my life up till that time certainly reflected this lack. Today I'm encourged to be a "Father to the Fatherless".]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I agree that our Heavenly Father is our all in all. He meets our every need. That said, it is clearly His Plan that we have an earthly father as well. In some cases that may be a mentor or uncle or grandfather but in most cases it is simply a dad. Let's not marginalize our earthly dad and point only to our Heavenly Father. The earthly dad is His Design. All other patterns are a product of a broken world which He can redeem. My takeaway is to build into men with others in mind - often that means their family or future family.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thank you, James, for such a clear picture of how we can see our Heavenly Father even through the grief of being fatherless here on earth. I have led several ministries to kids, teens and now the adult children of divorce. I saw so much hurt in the children of divorce, that I wrote a study for the adult children of divorce, called "Chained No More" and just released by West Bow Press. The losses are great and identities tainted in these broken famiies. Oh, to see the healing hand of Jesus bring them to understanding where their identity really lies; in who GOD says they are.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Absolutely spot on! After my divorce I came to realize very quickly that God could and would be the father in our home. My children are grown now and wonderful young adult kids who love the Lord. I work with hundreds of single parents and even more kids through DivorceCare for Kids (DC4K.org) and with every child I tell them God is their Heavenly Father and He can be the missing parent in their home. God is so good. Thank you for a timely message for today's kids.]]></description>
