Daily Butter: What if...?

My little addition to Our Daily Bread (6/26/11)

He did not even spare His own Son,
but offered Him up for us all;
how will He not also with Him grant us everything?
(Romans 8:32 HCSB)

How much is a father willing to do for his child? With my only son now three years old, I am continually learning how much I long to meet his every need and give him everything that will help him grow into a strong, faithful, wise and compassionate man.

What if as a father I actually had limitless resources and knew beyond a shadow of a doubt exactly what he needs to make him the man he was created to be?

What if I loved someone else, but the only way I could have any relationship with that person is to let my own son walk a path of suffering so great that I cannot even bear to watch?

What if I really understood my Heavenly Father did exactly that to adopt me into His family?
