The Father's House

In my Father's house are many rooms. (more than enough room) If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? John 14:6 ESV

The Treasure of being a Learner…

A fool despises his father's instruction, but whoever heeds reproof is prudent. Proverbs 15:5 ESV

Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.
Proverbs 13:24 ESV

Teachability, Responsibility, and Accountability are the most important kinds of abilities.

The Joy of Selflessness and Sacrifice…

Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Philippians 2:4-8 ESV

Selflessness living is a journey to the deepest and most intimate place in relationship with the Father.

Run to the Father…

But when he came to himself, he said, How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough bread, but I perish here with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants. Luke 15:17-19 ESV

It is a gift to get to run to God!
