Good day! GOD OUR GENEROUS AND PROVIDENT FATHER UNIT II - LESSON 3 what is the parenting style of your father? what your father does in order to provide for your family?  In a life full of concerns, we sometimes fail to appreciate the things that we receive.  It seems that life is just a routine that we follow each day, and we fail to notice the love and sacrifice that our father does. JESUS’ “ABBA” RELATIONSHIP Jesus Christ presented God as a loving and caring father, which opposes the old view of who people thing He was. JESUS’ “ABBA” RELATIONSHIP Jesus taught that God is the Father of all and instructed his disciples to pray to God as “Our Father”  For Jesus, the Father was not authoritarian, paternalistic God, but a God incredibly committed to us.  He is a forgiving Father who runs out to greet His prodigal repentant son (cf. Lk 15:20)  His love for us goes beyond all bounds. He even sends His only begotten Son to die on the Cross to bring salvation and new life to us all. Proclaiming God as Father, as Ama, Tatay, is to realize God’s place in our own self-identity We recognize the tremendous utang na loob we owe God our Father who sustains us every moment of our lives. But we also come to realize our responsibility to order our lives according to God’s loving will.  God’s will is that we grow into the fullness of our capacities, unto our perfect happiness. Trusting completely in His Fatherly Providence frees us from all depressing fear, through an authentic, positive “bahala na” attitude. Do you always pray?  Luke 12:22 "Then Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear.’"  The Gospel of Luke teaches us about a worry-free life. This is in contrast with what most people. We worry a lot. God will take care of the big and little stuff! Worrying doesn’t change things, big or small except to make those problems appear worse than they really are. Questions? Thank You
