       From time to time we are told and taught that we need to give up what we want for what God wants. However, let us translate this so called wisdom into an earthly father-son relationship. What Dad out there, listening to me today, is there who doesn’t want to give your son at least some of the things he wants? I would venture to say that all of you would agree with me that you give your son things he desires. You give him gifts he desires, take him places he wants to go, support him in interests he likes even though you may not particularly care for them. Why is it that some out there say that with God we have to give up all these things? None of you fathers out there expect your son to only care for gifts you pick for him, or to only want to go places that you specifically want to go, or to like things and seek after things only you have an interest in, and of which he is not interested in. None of you are like that. So, why in the world would we accept a picture of God like this? Who would do that?
