Guidance

[Zirivkylan]

Developing a deep, trusting relationship with God as your Abba Father, especially when your earthly father's rejection has left emotional scars, is a journey that requires patience, understanding, and spiritual growth. Here are some steps that might help you overcome these emotional barriers and trust God completely:

1. **Acknowledge Your Feelings**: It's important to recognize and validate your feelings of hurt and rejection. These emotions are real and valid, and acknowledging them is the first step toward healing.

2. **Seek God's Presence**: Spend time in prayer and meditation, inviting God into your heart and life. Share your struggles with Him openly, just as you would with a close friend. God is compassionate and understanding, and He desires to comfort you.

3. **Read Scripture**: Engage with the Bible, focusing on passages that speak of God's love and faithfulness. Verses like Psalm 23, Isaiah 49:15-16, and 1 John 4:18 can be particularly comforting, reminding you of God's unwavering love and care.

4. **Reflect on God's Nature**: Remind yourself of the nature of God as loving, patient, and kind. Unlike human relationships, God's love is perfect and unconditional. He is not limited by human flaws and can provide the love and acceptance you seek.

5. **Seek Support**: Consider joining a support group or seeking counsel from a pastor or Christian counselor. Sharing your experiences with others who understand can provide encouragement and guidance.

6. **Practice Forgiveness**: Forgiving your earthly father, not necessarily for his sake but for your own peace, can be a powerful step. This doesn't mean condoning his actions but releasing the hold they have on your heart.

7. **Build Trust Gradually**: Trust in God can be developed over time. Start with small steps, such as trusting Him with small decisions, and gradually build up to deeper trust.

8. **Celebrate Small Victories**: Acknowledge and celebrate moments when you feel closer to God or when you experience His love and presence. These moments can reinforce your faith and trust.

9. **Engage in Worship**: Participate in worship, whether through music, prayer, or community gatherings. Worship can be a powerful way to connect with God and experience His love.

10. **Be Patient with Yourself**: Healing and building trust take time. Be patient with yourself and allow God to work in your heart at His own pace.

Remember, God understands your pain and is committed to healing and restoring you. As you continue to seek Him, you will find that His love can fill the void left by human rejection, leading you to a deeper, more trusting relationship with Him.

We understand the deep hurt and confusion you're feeling, ###, as a result of your earthly father's rejection and emotional absence. It's natural for these experiences to hinder your ability to trust and embrace God as your Abba Father. Let's turn to the Scriptures for guidance and healing.

Firstly, it's crucial to understand that God's love and faithfulness are not like those of imperfect human beings. The prophet Isaiah reminds us, "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says Yahweh. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts" (Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB).

God promises to be a father to the fatherless and to comfort those who mourn. In Psalm 68:5, it is written, "A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation." And in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds."

To develop a deep, trusting relationship with God as your Abba Father, start by acknowledging Him as your perfect heavenly Father, untainted by human failings. Jesus taught us to pray, "Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy" (Matthew 6:9 WEB).

Let's pray together:

*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ###. We ask that You heal the deep wounds left by their earthly father's rejection. Help them to trust in Your perfect love, knowing that You will never leave them nor forsake them. Give ### a spirit of forgiveness towards their father, and replace their pain with Your peace. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*

Additionally, meditate on God's promises and immerse yourself in His Word. Romans 12:2 encourages us to "be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God." As you fill your mind with God's truth, you'll find it easier to trust Him completely.

Lastly, if you haven't already, consider seeking godly counsel from a pastor or Christian therapist to help you navigate these emotional barriers. Their support, along with the power of prayer and God's Word, can greatly aid in your healing journey.

We're here with you, ###, feeling the weight of the emotional void left by your earthly father's rejection. It's like trying to fill a bottomless well, isn't it? But remember, God is not like that. He's a father who fills us up, not leaves us empty.

In Psalm 36:7, it says, "How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings." Imagine that, ###, God's wings spread wide, a shelter for you, a place of safety and love.

We can start healing by acknowledging God as our perfect Father, untainted by human failings. Jesus taught us to address Him as "Our Father in heaven." Let's meditate on that, feeling the warmth of that relationship.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You today, feeling the pain of ###'s heart. We ask that You fill up the emptiness left by their earthly father's absence. Help them to feel Your love, Your presence, every moment of every day. Give them the strength to forgive, to let go of the pain, and to trust in You completely. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

And ###, don't forget, God's love is not something you have to earn or deserve. It's a gift, freely given. Just open your heart and receive it.
