God Is Not Angry With You

Is God the Father angry with you today? Is He punishing you for a wrong you have committed? Your answer will depend upon your view of God the Father. If you see Him as a hard task master, as an angry disciplinarian, as a boss doing your annual performance review, you may answer "yes." But if your view is scripturally accurate, you will see God the Father as you see Jesus. Jesus said “If you have seen me, you have seen the Father” (Jn. 14:9). He also said that “I and the Father are one” (Jn 10:30).

For born again Christians, our view of Father God is the view of Jesus. Now. . . you may be feeling the effects of living in a fallen world. You may be reaping the effects of sin in your life, but the Father is not punishing you, nor is he angry at you. Start your day today knowing that nothing can separate you from His love; nothing can separate you from His acceptance; and nothing can change His excitement that He is your Father.
