The Father’s Blessing

The Lord just invited me into a moment mid-work on a Monday morning to flood me with his love.  I told him at any point he is always welcome to do it to the fullest extent.  So he did it and what came to mind was a picture of Mom holding me as a baby with the Father standing next to her delighting in me and enjoying me.  And the view I see is looking through his eyes at me.  And there is a sense that I am an answer to prayers before and a sense that he is looking at me lovingly and knowing all that he is going to do in and through me and future generations that come after me.  Such a deep and intimate knowledge.  The Father’s blessing.  Preceding fatherly abandonment from Dad there is this gift of everlasting Fatherly love, commitment, steadfastness and blessing.  A knowing of my inmost being that no human could ever measure up to.  The depths of the Father’s love, who can understand it? 

Father I invite this very love that you have revealed to me to not only flood and saturate every ounce of my spirit, soul and body, heart, mind and will, but that it would also heal all Father attachment and abandonment wounding in Jesus name.  From everlasting to everlasting your love will never fail, waver or grow cold.  Wave after wave of your love rushes over me like the endless power of the waves of the ocean that pummel the seashore night and day, day and night.  May my heart dance in the power of your love like the billions of grains of sand that are washed in and washed out by the mighty rush of the waves of the oceans.  May hard places in me be demolished and softened by the power of your love like shells and rocks are reduced to sand by the power of the waves.
